What Inspires Ruth Collis

by Ruth Collis 

 

Cool tools, supplies, recreating things I see into 3D, and all the coral wonders that this thicker paint can imitate. I love exploring all the possibilities a medium can do, and thick acrylics has continued to amaze me more and more over the years with so many exciting discoveries to be found!

 

With me, you can always count on something out of the ordinary with materials used or an incredible technique, but most of all, TEXTURE that can only be found in my original acrylic sculptural paintings.

I am happiest being free to make something fun up, instead of following rules of doing realistic subject matter.

There are a hundred thousand artists who can replicate a cat in exact detail, but where have you seen the wonders of paint so thick it turns into sculpture? Where have you seen paint that looks like candy or be so transparent as well as being thick, it looks like glass? So flexible you can roll it into shapes? So versatile you can cut it, braid it, squish, squeeze, or swirl it, or use itself as a palette built up to use over again as texture in the art? That's not even getting into paint that GLOWS! If you want the most talked about, unique art ever seen in history, here it is... the amazing wonders of thick acrylic paint.
