Hello my dear friends :) Today it's gonna be a little special. Why ? I am gonna talk as usual about projects, videos etc but... I will also talk about you guys, yes YOU ! But before that... let me just share with you the yummy textures created in All about Texture video :) I had to capture those textured cards before I turn them into coloured art pages! Only now, when I look at them all together I see why you enjoyed this video so much. I do feel inspired already only by looking at them :) Finally I had a chance to make some individual photos :) I also added some titles for better explanation. It's like a library of the texture ideas :) In one video we created 20 different textures, I showed you all from start to finish. We used product packaging, recycled cardboard that everyone has at home. Those looks like big, fat tags :) At the end of the video I quickly finished one of the textured backgrunds and created this piece! After watching several of my videos wheter they were about texture or starting a page... you have shared a huge amount of projects with me! I would love to share those with you today. Take time and look at them closely! Stunning pieces! Thank you dear friends for watching my videos, for taking time to create and for sharing your makes on my Facebook and my Instagram. I am so grateful for each and everyone of you and so very proud! You shared plenty projects on Instagram... when you use #maremismallart not only me but others are able to see your art too ! If you missed the video all about 'TEXTURE', here it is :) Textures, all in one! I am in looooove :) I knew you were waiting for another episode of 'TEXTURE' series so I made a NEW video where I finished 2 packing cards! For those who didn't see it, please feel free to watch it :) Again, you have made my day by sharing your attempts, stunning creative works where some of you just started the mixed media journey for the first time, some were stuck with no inspiration and some of you just felt like creating. It is my biggest pleasure and reward to see your makes, to see your trials and to walk next to YOU in your creative path. Look at this collage of stunning projects inspired by my videos, I am absolutely stunned and proud! From the bottom of my heart... THANK YOU! You have given me so much love and support that I am not even sure how to thank for. You found courage to make a piece, then you were strong enough to share it with us on Maremi's Facebook, I am proud and HAPPY! Lastly I wish to share my latest recycled cards... I adore the texture and how different those are. To all You Artists! I hope you found this post inspirational and most importantly it will encourage you to START, to open up and use your stash, to look for your creativity... with all Maremi's Friends you can try, you can start and break the blank page, experiment and ENJOY !

Momerandum - V. 1 - Hand painted Photographic print on Hahnemuhle paper, mounted on diabond, UV resin coated - 140x140x5 cm ALBERTO SANCHEZ Born 1971, Spain Alberto Sánchez is a photographer and multi-media artist based between Byron Bay, Australia and Madrid, Spain. He prints, hacks and re-invents his own photographs using a unique hand-colouring technique, creating a hybrid reality of physical and imagined worlds where photographic documentary is meshed with improbable landscapes, creating his own form of magic realism. Sánchez rediscovers the world through his viewfinder and re-visions that experience through his textured layering and evocative palette. His body of work explores the notions of urban expansionism, capitalism and how individuals define themselves in an increasingly overloaded sensorial environment. Represented by Decorazon Gallery (USA/ London) and Retrospect Galleries in Australia, Alberto has exhibited extensively at Art Fairs in Europe, USA, South America, and throughout Asia where a significant portion of his work is photographed. Alberto has been gaining recognition from both institutions and commercial galleries around the world. His work has appeared in many press articles and publications. Awards include: Finalist in the Bowness Photography Prize (2013), Finalist in the Wilson Visual Arts Award (2013), Semi-finalist Doug Moran Portrait Prize (2011), finalist Prometheus Visual Arts Award (2011), Australian Institute of Photography Runner-Up QLD Portrait Photographer of the Year (2010), Highly Commended Olive Cotton Award (2009), People’s Choice and Finalist at HeadOn Alternative Portrait Awards (2009) a finalist in the Olive Cotton Award (2008) as well as 15 awards from the Australian Institute of Professional Photography (2007-2009).
