A color palate with hundreds of bright and bold colors has the ability to share millions of stories with the world. The real deal is to adapt and understand various artistic methods accurately and redefine them in your artwork.
Therefore, to familiarize you with all the artistic methods, expert artist Steffi Rodigas shares some of the most renowned art techniques and styles.
As an artist of modern times, Steffi adapts every artistic method with a twist that is evident in her artwork. This unique approach to art enabled Steffi to make a name for herself in the global arts landscape.
Buckle up and get ready to take notes from Steffi’s secret to success using various art methods described below:
Watercolor Magic:
Let’s begin with watercolors. The divine mix of colors and water is a treat for your canvas as it is readily available and easy to use. One advantage over large oil paintings is that watercolors can be stored with less space. Therefore, watercolor was Steffi’s go-to art method during the pandemic.
Steffi’s inspiration for adopting the watercolor magic was none other than the experts M. Solovyev, T. Shaller and L. Hunsung. They achieved excellent precision and perfection with watercolors clearly represented in their artwork. After practicing by watching their videos, Steffi was able to curate her own style and master it with a certain comfort. Travel impressions gathered during her award ceremonies, such as in New York or Milan, are reflected in her watercolors. You can journey through Steffi’s watercolor artwork here.
Oil euphoria:
When Steffi, after a life in various professions, approached painting again, she banned landscapes and animals with acrylic paints on canvas. Her great role models of the Romantic period, such as C. David Friedrich, however, painted with oil paints. Therefore, the artist began with a lot of diligence and courses on the Internet to deal with oil painting. Steffi’s mantra, “practice, practice and practice again,” as well as the necessary expertise from the courses, brought her, especially in portrait painting, to quite a perfection. You can discover numerous oil paintings on her website.
Unique sculptures:
Steffi’s love for three-dimensionality has often been shown in paintings where she has added physical elements to emphasize the spatial. Wood would be her favorite material, but working it with chainsaws and other equipment scares her. That’s why the artist specialized in Styrodur, a building insulation material. With a saw, cutter knife, sandpaper and a lot of dedication, she creates magical, unique figures. For an elaborate, loving decorative design, she uses the pouring technique.

Art in Art:
Out of the philosophy of not wasting anything, her specially created art form, “Art in Art,” was born. Leftover paint finds its use in the form of squares, circles, birds, butterflies or feet. Art in Art is a totality of individual small works of art in itself. A large number of tiny parts with their own colorful expressiveness open up to the viewer, which can fire the imagination. But also, the big hole leaves free space for the joy of discovery. You can get a detailed look at this art method here.
These art methods enable artists to leverage their creativity and work on their potential masterpieces with excellent comfort and expertise. Gain an insight into various art methods by following Steffi Rodigas on Facebook.
