Srinivas Kathoju
Purple Fields and the Horizon 1, Abstract Oil Painting

2019

About the Item

Artist Comments
"This painting is inspired by vast open fields and horizons that go on infinitely," shares artist Srinivas Kathoju. "The fields representing the foreground are painted with thick color and texture. The horizon is situated in the middle where the landscape blends with the sky and the background glow with golden light."


About the Artist
During the day, Srinivas Kathoju is a full-time software engineer. However, his art reflects another side of his personality; a passion for painting, a love of nature, and a desire to depict the vastness and majesty of the landscape. What makes his paintings unique is the way they incorporate several styles of art. The abstracted compositions have the soft atmosphere of an impressionist landscape, combined with the flat bold shapes of a post-war modern painting. Additionally, there is an ambiguity to the composition. The eye may easily register the painting as a landscape, but struggle to identify the horizon line and other landmarks within the piece. Is the block of turquoise running the length of the canvas a river, or just another line of color within the layers of stacked shapes?
