About the Item
Artist Comments
This Fauve-inspired work makes use of two dominant sets of contrasting colors: yellow/violet and blue/orange. This projects and amplifies the colors within the composition. I kept the brushwork loose, and only included detail where absolutely necessary. The trees, for example, are rendered in a single color with one brush to keep them from becoming too busy and distracting. The people are also merely suggestions rather than realistic. The sides are painted brown, and it comes ready to hang.
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 Andr; 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.
