Vincent Van Gogh | Still life with flowers

"In Antwerp I did not even know what the Impressionists were, now I have seen them and though not being one of the club, yet I have much admired certain Impressionist pictures - Degas🎨, figure - Claude Monet🎨, landscape.

And now for what regards what I myself have been doing, I have lacked money for paying models, else I had entirely given myself to figure painting but I have made a series of colour studies in painting simply flowers, red poppies, blue corn flowers and myosotys.

White and rose roses, yellow chrysantemums - seeking oppositions of blue with orange, red and green, yellow and violet, seeking The Broken And Neutral Tones to harmonise brutal extremes. Trying to render intense Colour and not a grey harmony" - Quote of Vincent van Gogh🎨 in his letter to Horace Mann Livens, from Paris, September or October 1886.

Robert Fowler (1853-1926)

Robert Fowler è stato un artista Scozzese che dipinse scene mitologiche e paesaggi.

Fowler è nato ad Anstruther, nel Fife, ed è stato allevato principalmente da suo zio e sua zia mentre i suoi genitori erano via per lavoro.

Ha mostrato una predisposizione molto precoce per l'arte, partendo prima dal disegno a matita per poi passare alla pittura e alla modellazione della creta.

La sua famiglia si trasferì a Liverpool e Fowler andò a scuola al Liverpool College.

All'età di 16 anni, trovò lavoro in un ufficio commerciale dove il suo talento per l'arte fu riconosciuto dal suo datore di lavoro, che incoraggiò i genitori di Fowler a mandarlo alla scuola d'arte.

Harry Holland (British, 1941)

Harry Holland is widely regarded as one of Britain’s best craftsmen, producing technically brilliant and very beautiful paintings.

His style is distinctive and immediately recognisable, something which every artist seeks.

The paintings are suggestive in the sense that they imply situations, events, or relationships that are not directly expressed; this imbues them with an engaging sense of mystery.

A master of painting, Holland works with uncompromising commitment and sincerity to produce art that is intense and rewarding.

Alexey Rychkov (Russian, 1968)

Inspired by works of Russian marine painters, Алексея Рычкова specialized in sea landscapes at the beginning of his creative career. The characteristic feature of his paintings is thin and transparent technique of depicting water in motion.

City landscapes of the artist are of romantic spirit and mood: St. Petersburg, the Neva, bridges and embankments, classical architecture. Landscapes of St. Petersburg are akin to works of old masters in the interpretation of the artist.

He has an excellent command of multilayered painting technique which is organically combined with the effective and solemn panoramic compositions.
