According to Celia, the essence of being an artist lies in the profound ability to translate beautiful things onto a canvas. For her, exploring new ways to bring her vision to life through the stroke of a brush is, undoubtedly, the most rewarding aspect of her craft.
Upon joining Give Squad, INSTAX played a pivotal role. Celia created a moodboard using nothing but 10 INSTAX prints which were printed from her INSTAX MINI Link 2 Smartphone printer. The 10 images chosen were of the sky in Madrid. To make her moodboard come to life on the canvas, she used a new painting technique she’s never utilized before. The Gouache paint, while similar to watercolor paint, is a paint with a high level of opacity which requires Celia to approach her canvas differently. This Gouache technique allowed Celia to channel her inspiration into beautiful dreamscapes and challenged her in an artistic way she has never done before.
