“Humankind” by Dmitri Ivnitski
Dmitri Ivnitski is an artist and scientist living in Florida. His paintings have characteristically included realistic, impressionistic, and contemporary styles. However, over the last few years, his style has changed dramatically! He tells The Rickie Report, ” For many years I used oil on canvas. I was interested to use acrylic pouring technique (APT) for my artworks. APP is a technique used to create paintings with natural flowing patterns. I experimented with the pouring of acrylic paints onto canvas and manipulating it with a variety of mediums and methods”.
“Goldfish” by Dmitri Ivnitski
He tells us, “I found that acrylics can be combined with all sorts of painting mediums to give them properties similar to oils and watercolors. This process is fully intuitive, unique and never the same twice! Sometimes I almost immediately see something unusual and interesting in the color, line and texture; sometimes I watch the image on the canvas for days. Finally, I was able to understand what the canvas is showing me and I highlight what appears by adding realistic “subject”. It allows me to create beautiful abstracts that are truly unique. The visual experience of mixture both warm and cold colors together look similar to playing musical notes in cords and rhythms.
“Windy Day” by Dmitri Ivnitski
And now, the acrylic pouring painting has become an addiction for me – once I start, I just can’t stop… Benefits of this technique are great flexibility, thin transparent washes like watercolors and thick impasto swathes creating texture and movement”. As a result, for the first time Dmitri will present 25 abstracts based on APT in this exhibit at the Hallandale Cultural Community Center. What I love most is observing how people react to my art.
“Past Memory” by Dmitri Ivnitski
“Science and painting have always been a central part of my identity as a human being. My passion for painting had started many years ago. However, through the years, life happened, and art sat on the side. My long-term career was devoted to the science. I worked as a professor in a variety of academic institutions. I am the author of 110 scientific articles, 5 chapters in books and several patents. I came back to painting ten years ago after retiring from my professional career. I am inspired by Picasso, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Matisse and many other great artists. Colors play a major role in my life. The subject matter is nature, whether it is a traditional landscape, people, a bird, or a flower. In my paintings I have used different styles (realistic, impressionistic, and contemporary). My traditional materials have been oil and acrylic on canvas. I try to paint with a level of instinct, rather than only making calculated decisions”.
“Explosion of a Star” by Dmitri Ivnitski
“The style of my work has been changed over the years. It has become less realistic and I draw more abstracts. Last couple years I was inspired by acrylic pouring paintings (accidental painting). What I love about acrylic pouring are the surprises that pop-up when the paintings are ready, animals, people, aliens, ocean, flame I have seen; so many beautiful things in my paintings come forward. Currently acrylic pouring painting has become an addiction for me – once I start, I just can’t stop…”
