You work with various mediums like oil, acrylic, pastel and watercolor. What draws you to these mediums, and how do you decide which one to use for a particular piece?
These are traditional painting techniques that are easy for me to use. I don’t mix techniques. I often paint outdoors, taking oil or watercolor with me, and pastels as a spare. The choice of technique is a matter of course without any thought; intuitively, I reach for a brush or a crayon. However, I love to paint portraits in oil techniques because they offer a lot of possibilities. Oil provides opportunities to obtain additional planes and unexpected exposure. Oil gives softness and plasticity.
