Original artwork description:

"Moscow Red Square View" is a Commissioned Modern Impressionist stylized cityscape palette knife oil Painting on stretched canvas 20 X 20 cm (8 x 8 inches).

This miniature cityscape painting captures an aerial night view of Red Square in Moscow and the Saint Basil's Cathedral, rendered in an abstract stylized manner. It was realized in impasto technique, with heavy textures of oil paint applied with a diversity of palette knives.

I have always loved to approach my urban paintings in a myriad of ways. I enjoy stylizing architectural forms in various manners. This has always been one of my goals, even a preoccupation from the time I was studying at the school of architecture until the present. The versatility of oil paint along with my prototypic work with palette knives allows me to play with the urban forms abstracting the city in an unconstrained manner.

Materials used:

canvas, oil paint, palette knives
