Fierce Frequency Painting

BIO Growing up in the metropolis and governmental city The Hague in the Netherlands as well as a career in aviation are clear and strong influences on the work of international selling artist Bianca Lever. She discovered her passion for art later in life, as if all those experiences were looking for a creative way out. Thus leading to getting an art degree and pursuing a career in Art. The abstract realistic work of Bianca Lever is expressive and outspoken. Her realistic figures, people and animals, are painted on pop- and streetart style backgrounds. Her mixed media process in which different techniques and styles are combined is both thought through as well as intuitive and exploring, always pushing the envelope. Her motto “Be curious, explore and experience” shows in her work. There is a lot of juxtaposition, contrast and visible layering. Always ending with multiple layers of oil to make the colours even more intense and to create more depth by using cold and warm pigments. Bianca still travels a lot and lives and works in the middle of artistic and inspiring Italy where she paints from her studio with a beautiful view of the Appenines. ARTIST STATEMENT: I create art the same way I create my life; curious, positive and exploring all possibillities while having some fun in the process. Using mixed media, creating juxtapositions and lots of contrasts because that causes excitement. My paintings are outspoken and expressive, because I believe in freedom of speech and I talk through my paintings. I paint realistic figures, people and animals, always trying to capture their true essense. The backgrounds are done in pop- or streetart style, playful and spontaneous. Always finishing in oils, creating an endresult that is visibly layered and filled with emotions. "Be curious, explore and experience…"
