The backgrounds for all my portraits start off as abstract pieces. I’ve always enjoyed the idea of shutting myself off from reality by playing music and grabbing a blank canvas, repurposed MDF or wall and painting whatever my imagination instructs. I use bold colour, texture and experiment with techniques to produce the one-off pieces I create.
Abstract pieces are available on commission by using the ‘Request a Quote’ or ‘Contact’ forms. If you like the look of an abstract piece as a background for a portrait, please choose the piece then confirm your commission using the forms or email hello@artbynicole-rose.com discuss.
