The February challenge of 'Goed Gezien - Goed Bekeken' is about the colourful contrasts between the Carnival and the following weeks of Lent. Carnival is about colours and festivity while Lent is about fasting, sobriety and centuries ago about not having much food left from last harvest.
My painting shows a winter landscape in shades of grey and the masks are painted over that landscape. I painted a second layer in grey in the landscape that is not under the masks but still it did take two or more layers of paint to make the masks stand out.
The information about the materials I have used, the size of this work and its availability can all be found in my Tumblr blog.
