Painters of Landscape
While few of us can afford paintings by the greatest landscape artists like Monet and Constable, reproductions give us an affordable access to their works to enhance our decorating schemes.
Amateur painters often chose landscape as a subject matter as they may not have access to decent studio space and therefore can more easily paint in situ. This was not always the case and the first Impressionist to take their easels outside were viewed as rather unconventional, as artists before them would have painted inside from memory or sketches.
Painting landscape is an art tradition common to many cultures, and it goes hand-in-hand with the popularity of the genre. This was especially the case in Japan, North America, the Netherlands, France and Great Britain until the latter part of the twentieth century as other forms of artistic representation, such as Surrealism and Cubism, for example, grabbed the artists and critics' attention. Nowadays with the advent of video and installations landscape artists are becoming a rare, rather obsolete breed.
With all this being said, let's note, however, that most people still rather like landscape paintings. They usually convey a sense of emotional connection to the subject matter, which does not necessarily occur when one looks at a portrait or still life. This is particularly the case when the painting in question reminds of times past.
A number of very famous landscape artists became well known for concentrating on specific areas. In some cases it could almost be tantamount to obsession if you consider that Paul Cézanne, for instance, painted around eighty versions of the Sainte-Victoire mountain located near his home in Provence, France. He wanted to represent it as it looked to him throughout the year, with different weather.
In the seventeen century Holland saw the first European painters representing seascapes, Vermeer and Rembrandt. Since this time there has been a noted recurrence of sky and water themes for some landscape painters, like for instance the well-known English artist JMW Turner. Turner was fist noted for his representations of the sea and skies in violent storm conditions. This said his later works point to the future development of abstract painting by blurring the previously clear line between the water and the sky. French artist Claude Monet's developed his technique for painting landscapes involving water by doing so in close proximity to his subject matter, which would sometimes involve painting from a small boat. American painters Homer and Wyeth, both renowned landscape painters, were also noted for the admirable way they managed to represent the effect of light on water surfaces.

The Hand Painted Encircled – Classy Home Décor
Vincent Van Gogh once quoted – "The only time I feel alive is when I'm painting." How true his words are! Art is a form of expression and a hand painted wall décor makes us feel alive even if we are not the ones who have actually painted it! If you're a fan of abstract art, then that fact will probably reflect in your home décor and furnishings too!
Nebraska Furniture Mart brings to you a beautiful hand painted wall décor from Studio Arts – the Hand Painted Encircled. We think that this ultra-modern home interior picture from Studio Arts will make a classy addition to any room of your home. You can hang it up on the wall of your living room or on your patio as a stylish accent to the bare walls there. The 16x32" canvas picture is stretched around solid pine wood bars, giving the impression of being a frameless wall décor.
Paintings and artwork that are designed for a contemporary home can blend easily into any ambience, irrespective of the theme and colors of the room. However, simple facts to be considered, include the furniture, wall color, rugs, lamps, and curtains in that room.
This Studio Arts wall décor is imaginatively made by blending colors, such as white, beige, blue, olive, and red to create a rich and attractive painting on canvas. Since it is an oil painting, we think that the colors will be prominent against any backdrop. The motifs on the painting are that of circles encircled in one another, thus giving this home interior picture its name. We think that the elegance of this hand painted wall décor has been further refined with the brushstrokes and the knife edge technique of painting.
So, whether you are an art aficionado or a simple art admirer, we believe that this Studio Arts Wall Décor from NFM is perfect for you!
