"Impressionist Echoes", acrylic on gesso board, Bishop Maxim, 2024
Very enjoyable landscape with simplicity rendered. It recalls happy moments of French Impressionism, after Van Gogh and Cézanne. The blue of the SKY does not rest on the slope of the triangular peak, but leaves a WHITE glow, which, together with the WHITE glow of the seashore, delineates the whole massif. Nature is presented to us here as a JOYFUL face expressing the happy moment of all creation as if personifying inanimate matter and making its presence in the painting friendly to the viewer.
"A childlike face with innocent eyes cradled in the mountain."
