In this video I would like to introduce you to one of my large-format abstract paintings entitled “The Untamed”. I painted it on a canvas that is not yet stretched on a stretcher frame. The acrylic painting will then be sent rolled. This work of art measures 214 cm x 122 cm.

My name is Kirsten Handelmann, I am a freelance artist and qualified graphic designer from Hanover in Germany. My great passion is abstract painting.
In my videos I would like to give you insights into my work processes, i.e. applying layers of paint, assessing them and painting over them again. I would also like to introduce you to some of my finished works and also show you small scenes from my daily artistic work, such as preparing a work for shipping when it has been sold.
But what I also want to document is that not everything always leads to satisfactory results straight away. It can be a long process with many detours until the work is finished for me, and sometimes it is better to put the work away for now.
I usually paint on several paintings at the same time, which I continually bring out and re-evaluate. Often, with a little distance, I can immediately see what they need or no longer need.
I only use acrylic paints and very consciously use the interaction with different transparencies.
I bought all the materials myself, but I still mark my videos with the word “advertising” in some places because I can’t always prevent products or product names from appearing in the video.
If you like my work, I would be very happy if you would subscribe to my channel, like, share and comment on my videos. Thanks so much!
Now I wish you much joy
while watching
Kind regards from Hanover,
Kirsten
