About the Item
Artist Comments
"This stylized view of a boatyard uses contrasting tones and many linear elements in order to create a compelling work," says artist Robert Hofherr. He paints over a cool blue and teal background in bold tones. The flattened perspective and non-representational drawing style suggest an almost infinite series of visual connections. Robert adds that the avoidance of any trace of realism allows the compositional needs of the work to remain of primary importance.
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.
