OK; so a bit of an indulgent posting for me this week, as cityscape paintingsare one of my favourite expressions of the artistic urge. I hope you’ll like them too.
I’m actually pretty crazy about all of Irina Rumyantseva’s work; it was hard to pick just one. I’ve chosen City Dreams because of the unusual and fresh choice of pinks and purples along with a stetchy, graphic cityscape. I also recommend Irina’s portraits of cows and cats.
Next up is Stewart Wilson’s For the Weekend. Strong, luminescent colour and a bold, loose and yet together painterly style are all winners in my book.
My third pick this week is Kris Hardy’s 6th Avenue. Again, this painting just has a winning combination of elements that really float my boat – from the acute perspective angle to the sketchy, painterly style, and suggestion of rain, it’s all there. This is an art piece that would work either in a home or corporate setting.
And for my final pick… OK; as a Bristolian I am biased here; but I love all of Paula Lundy’s work and especially her depictions of the Clifton Suspension Bridge in the moonlight. I really like the way her paintings remind me of a Tim Burton film.
Shown here is “Isambard’s Bridge”.
