Art of the Day: "Woodland flowers, 2015" by Colette Baumback

“Once in a while a painting goes just right and the completed work is exactly as you wanted it to be. The inspiration for this painting came about during a walk in the woods last week. I came across these tall, pink flowers of Rosebay Willowherb crowding together in a woodland clearing . They looked so vibrant amongst the greenery I couldn't wait to paint the scene, I wanted to incorporate the backdrop of green so I could convey the contrast of colour and light.”

I'm impressed by the fresh mountain air and bright colours of the Carpathian Mountains! A bright sunny morning in June in a mountain village. Alexander Kriushin is works in the traditions of the European school of fine arts, combined with the southern temperament of execution. The artist travels a lot and works en plein air, but often a plain etude is just an excuse for further work, and then the work begins in the studio.
