Where darkness meets imagination: The surrealistic ART of astrid ravendahl

Astrid is an Australian contemporary artist based in Melbourne (Naarm).
Primarily working with acrylic on canvas, Astrid mixes her own paints and employs a range of techniques, including grisaille and glazing.

Through dramatic use of contrast and colour, combined with symbolism; Astrid’s thought-provoking artworks invite the viewer to draw their own interpretation.

Using textures and layering paint, many of Astrid’s recent paintings have hidden elements only revealed by the light. Her surrealistic works are emotive, dark, ethereal, and imaginative.
