Yellow No 27

About Yellow No 27

An angled shape in canary yellow floats on a ground of dove grey and black in this mixed media abstract composition. Stoyanov's paintings have a fresco-like quality, the taut surface of the canvas polished to a fine smooth finish. The work has a very clean edge and does not require framing. His work is created using a combination of pigment, wax, and marble dust.

"My paintings are meditative works, created through the layers of various colors and textures - like the layers of leaves on a woodland floor, each leaf adding a new level to my understanding of nature. I wish to bring this awareness to my audience and to create opportunities for dialogue." Ivo Stoyanov
