HOPEFUL for 2021 - Why I adore Paul Klee word-art

Описание: At the beginning of a new year it is interesting to think about life and how you want to enter the new year. Or to look back at the previous. In this video I show you how to make a word-art painting inspired by the artist Paul Klee. A few weeks ago I invited you to participate in this project by sending in your artwork to be show in in this video. A number of you did, thanks. Now you can see even more options of creative options to make word-art paintings.

The poem Paul Klee used for his painting is this one:
Einst dem Grau der Nacht enttaucht / Dann schwer und teuer / und stark vom Feuer / Abends voll von Gott und gebeugt / Nun ätherlings vom Blau umschauert, / entschwebt / über Firnen, zu klugen Gestirnen.

The English translation:
Once emerged from the gray of night / Heavier and dearer and stronger / Than the fire of the night / Drunk with God and doubled over. / At present ethereal / Surrounded by blue / Soaring over the glaciers / Toward the wise constellations.

Materials
The art materials I use in the videos are not sponsored.
I prefer to work on multi-purpose paper, more info in this video:    • How to choose the RIGHT paper for your art   In almost all my videos I use with Winsor&Newton Galeria acrylics, if not, I will say so in the video. Other materials I use are in random order: 5, 10 and 40mm brushes, palette knives, acrylics medium, Ecoline liquid watercolor, Lyra color pencils, Lyra soft pastels, oil pastels, Stabilo color pencils, paper palette pad and basic masking tape. I also use household items like a permanent marker, scrub sponge, scissors, paper towel, and so on.
