Robert Hofherr

Floral, Original Painting

2023

Artist Comments
Artist Robert Hofherr shows an expressionist floral still life in a cool palette of blue and violet. He renders the flowers and leaves quickly and confidently with brisk brushwork. "The textured and indistinct background becomes an integral part of the piece," reveals Robert. "Only necessary detail is present." His paint handling retains freshness and spontaneity.

About the Artist
Robert Hofherr avoids depicting a landscape exactly as he sees it or as the viewer might expect. Instead, he enjoys reimagining landscapes and painting his pieces indoors at a fairly rapid pace. The works of French Fauve artists Maurice de Vlaminck and André Derain initially got him interested in painting, and also influenced his decision to not use grey in his works. During his free time he enjoys spending time with his kids, walking his dogs and taking road trips to out-of-way places in the mid-Atlantic region. He currently lives in Maryland.
