I was so fascinated by art since I remember myself. My mum used to collect magazine pages with artworks by famous painters of all styles, we also had albums from Hermitage, Louvre, Metropolitan, Uffizi. Rubens was one of the 1st painter I discovered. He is far not my favourite painter, but I remember marvelling at the portrait of 15 y.o. Helene in her wedding dress – so playful, young and curious.

Comment on The Holy Family paintings by Joos van Cleve by amolika1

I deal exclusively with the urban landscape and aim to present a painted world which in some ways resembles the world we live in. I am fascinated by the city, it’s visual complexity and constant state of flux. The act of painting is an attempt fix this information and give vision to our experience of living within it. [...] The work aims to create credible and convincing space which whilst making reference to our world displays it’s own distinct logic. This space is created through drawing, which I see as fundamental in establishing a world the viewer can engage with. Drawing allows me to make human pictorial decisions instead of relying on the mechanical eye of a camera or software package. This process is open ended and changes from one painting to the next. Whilst I employ a variety of perspectival strategies, these methods are not fixed or rigid in their application. Working with a box of pencils and an eraser I will start by establishing an horizon line on which I will place vanishing points to construct simple linear shapes which become subdivided into more complex arrangements..

Fascinating shape-shifting Joseph. Maybe he was painting likenesses of patrons?

Right here is the right webpage for anyone who wishes to find out about this topic.

You know so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I
personally would want to…HaHa). You certainly put a fresh spin on a subject which has been written about for many
years. Great stuff, just excellent!
