Paintings to share

ArtGal

Recently discovered for myself Robert Falk and just want to share. Here is some  of his paintings:
(the first one is self portrait)

Thanks for sharing these, @ArtGal.  I love the way Falk uses colour and brushstrokes to create an almost crystalline look. He reminds me of Cezanne with a bit of Picasso and Matisse into the mix.

I like the second portrait a lot

What I would call blended 'block' brushstrokes by Dave Santillanes:

Richard_P; I always wished I could paint brushstrokes like that.  Nice mist effect he has achieved.

love this painting! had to look him up - beautiful works, thanks for posting

I like the underlying geometry of his paintings. Cones, cubes, spheres, cylinders and prisms are repeated and arranged in space with correct perspective and populated with stylized human figures to create calm, dreamlike landscapes. I really like them. 

Richard_P

Me too. Something different than other paintings you see.

Thanks Richard P for posting. I really liked this painting so I looked up Robert Moore. He apparently is colorblind!

Maybe this explains the dramatic value differences; but the sometimes weird colors I find are very beautiful. Thanks again for bringing this painter to us.

Found some more inspiration today!

Fakhraddin Mokhberi - Landscape of Gazvin (This reminded me of Kaustav)


Robert Barber - Up (This reminded me of Tassieguy)


Roger Dale Brown - A walk through the woods (I love the soft subdued colours here)

Fascinating portrait by Yim Mau Kun:

That's an impressive interior. The composition, drawing and handling of values are great. As soon as I saw it I thought of this Painting by Tom Roberts:

@tassieguy spot on! Main floor, two side galleries, workers, onlookers, exterior light at the end to draw the eye. Thanks for this. You've added hugely to my appreciation of interior composition and given me another artist to investigate.

@ArtGal thanks for the thread👏

Just recently learnt about this French academic painter Jean George Vibert   His paintings of cardinals are amazing. This one called Eureka looks surprisingly contemporary to me.

@ArtGal Wonderful in so many ways. His expression is making me chuckle.

Wonderful paintings, @ArtGal. They probably seemed a bit irreverent at the time - catching the princes of the church indulging their foibles.
