About the Item
Artist Comments
Artist Robert Hofherr displays a colorful rendition of a Massachusetts backyard in spring. He draws inspiration from the many bold landscapes of Matisse. "Rather than strict or literal representation, elements here are distorted and stylized," says Robert. He creates a compelling visual that suggests rather than delineates. The use of seasonal colors and textured patterns retains the graphic quality of the piece.
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.
