Andrei Petrov
Sun Shower - Blue and Green Abstract Square Landscape Painting

2018

About the Item

Andrei Petrov's Sun Shower is a 40 x 40-inch abstract landscape oil painting. Petrov's works blend nature, mythological and historical references assembled into a personal interpretation that almost invariably drifts away from any clear figurative representation. Color and light are the main building blocks of imagery that are neither representational nor ultimately diverted from linking to the real world. Nature and landscapes will often come to the surface only to entice the viewer back into a magical abstraction of voluptuous colors. The heritage of Petrov's Russian roots resonates in his consistent use of luscious purple, blue and red hues. This ethereal painting with light blues, red and green colors evokes dancing flowers against a sunny day's blue sky. Andrei Petrov writes about his work "In my approach two roads are taken: a natural, Hudson River School path of light and drama filled grandeur that encounters energetic animated gestures, muscular surfaces and bold strokes familiar in Abstract Expressionism. Beneath numerous glazes and opalescent layers swaths of paint dash about this stage and often emerge from the lower depths of which there are many levels. Freezing the action allows a probing slow-motion breakdown of the components that comprise the canvas. Think of a frozen lake: leaves, twigs, nuts, fish, are all suspended in ice at different depths and angles. Piercing the surface, thick islets of paint interrupt a placid color field and create vast non-linear perspective from the root to the fruit of the gesture. Tension is created by the juxtaposition of animated bursts of paint with the slow contemplative layering found in paintings of the Hudson River School. The invitation to explore this amber-like world is now extended. Sometimes the brush is mightier than the pen."

  • Days of Delight - Abstract Versus Figurative Oil Painting with Aqua Blue Colors
    By Parris Jaru
    Located in New York, NY
    Parris Jaru's Days of Delight is a 44 x 20 inches oil painting. The main color is aqua blue. The surface is defined by a thick impasto of paint, made with plant-based pigments that Jaru collects himself during his long exploratory trips through India. This painting is part of a new series that concentrates on using natural colors only, extracted from plants. Natural Indigo, Turmeric, Hibiscus, Beet Root, Rosemary Leaf, Aloe Extract, and Holi Powders to name a few, mixed with Babul Tree Resin. Though the overall composition is abstract, there is a perception of figuration. Parris was born in NY and grew up in St. Ann's Bay, Jamaica until he was ten years old. Partly Jamaican and Blackfoot Indian...

  • Gimme Shelter
    By Andrei Petrov
    Located in New York, NY
    Andrei Petrov is an American artist of Russian origins. He is best known for his abstract oil paintings where calibrated stratifications of intense shades of colors are scraped to expose prior layers. This creative process is the expression of his lifelong struggle to retain memories of his childhood and life. “ As a child I was involved in an accident that affected my memory and compelled me to paint. Ever since, I have been trying to reclaim what I lost through my work”. His abstractions at times reference natural landscapes and atmospheric transparencies, like the beautiful blue, green and earth colors of this work seem to suggest. The title of this painting "Gimme Shelter...
