BERNARD JANSON ; PAINTING KNIFE; INTIMISTICS LANDSCAPES

Here, I express the intimate charm of some landscapes or gardens characterized by the greenish foliage, the friendly light of sunshine, smooth contrasts and deep and mysterious shades. As an artist painter, it's my vision of nature I propose to the viewers.

With this pandemic isolation period, artists painters cannot find painting subjects far away from their studio. Therefore, while wainting for those painting subjects, I went to this garden playlet with its earliest spring flowers.

the delicate colours and the mysterious atmosphere of this wintry undergrowth refer to sleepy nature, but ready to wake up from the outset of spring.

The automn warm colours with romantic and mysterious aspects, with the play of light on water, the soft hues of foliage, the delicate shadows, cause emotions to myself, I try to paint on the canvas.

what incite myself to put my easel here, is exuberant nature of the river bank with its coloured shades and the shimmering greeness, and also the plays of light reflected in water. All that make emotions in myself I try to paint on the canvas.
