"No Objection Certificate" Fine Art Print

I am Arnel Sarmiento, a Civil Engineer by Education, but an artist by heart. I try to keep my colors to a minimum--using three (3) cool and three (3) warm primaries. I apply the principle of split-complimentary and triadic color schemes as much as I can for all of my paintings in all mediums. I like the transparency and numerous qualities of watercolors. I use it in portraits, landscapes, flowers, and figure paintings. Although handling watercolor is quite harder than acrylic or oil paints, it gives me the satisfaction of painting different subjects in a very short period of time. I find oil to be a respectable medium. I use it in portraits, figures and open-air type paintings. Due to its slow drying qualities, I find it easier to add and blend colors directly on the canvas. I feel that acrylic paint is good for painting outside of the studio. It dries very quickly, like watercolor, but with a texture that I enjoy for flower and abstract paintings. I feel blessed and honored to be an artist. I have had the privilege of putting down on paper my thoughts, inspirations, and the beautiful sceneries that God has given us.
