[Note: above images are from my gap year in 2013, which I spent trawling the art galleries of Europe and taking lots of photos of artworks that I liked. Over the past summer I have organised+compiled all of these. By doing so and uploading them here I’m hoping to find connections and identify common elements, creating a record of the things I felt drawn to and inspired by.]
The place where I was living in 2013 was near Yvoire, where there is a gallery called Galerie Fert, which often exhibited works by this painter, Yves Wacheux.
Some similar elements of the paintings I’ve posted so far: dreamy colours, loose brushwork, flattened landscapes, patterns, colour layering… and for the most part, representational / illustrative.
