Bato Dugarzhapov (1966 -) Russian impressionist painter. After discovering and sharing Eduard Manet’s legacy and before returning to printed matters meet this Russian painter. (Left: bouquet, a detail) Site-links where you can visit Bato Dugarzhapov’s art are at the end of this posting. Selecting 16 out of the odd 300 I found on the Internet an impossible and unthankful task. Just ask me to “publish” 16 more. Born in Chita in the far far East of Russia, north of China and north of Mongolia maybe explaining his “wide angle” vision and why so many of his compositions are painted against the light. For photographers, besides the most interesting, creative and challenging also the most difficult light to pursue and catch. This selection a few my favorites. To get you interested in case, like me, you’ve never heard of him before. Now you have. 250+ to go. (Paris, Seine bookstall and banks) (Thaw) Konstantin Korovin (1861-1934) is considered the Russian Claude Monet (1840-1926). He was a contemporary of Monet. A century later Bato Durgazhapov taking Impressionism beyond Monet and Korovin. His picking up Light with a brush from his soft pastel pallet is extraordinary. Some of his painting almost “go completely abstract” but squeezing the eyelids against the sun the scene eventually emerges from the canvas. Comparing one can find examples of practically all stages of Monet’s artistic lifetime evolution. The same goes for Korovin . He must have studied both painters intensively. Korovin once was director of the Moskow Art School where Bato D. was a student a century later. His paintings are of course way out of my financial range but discovering him made me a richer man. Hopefully there will be a book in future. In my lifetime. See the gull in the sky !!

It is no secret that I love the impressionist movement. But how exactly do you paint in an impressionist style? Many artists seem to use it as an excuse to paint sloppily. But really, impressionism is just a relaxed form of realism in my opinion. Accuracy is still extremely important in impressionism. In this post,
The Impressionists are renowned for their enduring scenes of people and places, whether energetic seascapes or portraits of young women. Four artists – Hughie O‘Donoghue RA, Maggi Hambling, Ishbel Myersc…

Immerse yourself in the vivid and vibrant scenic beauty of the Scottish Highlands with our enchanting print. Inspired by the breathtaking River Coe in Glencoe, this piece transports viewers to a serene summer day surrounded by the lush wonder of nature. Captured in the timeless impressionist style, the artwork is a symphony of brushstrokes that play with light and colour to portray the dynamic life force of the Highlands. The painting radiates the warm glow of the summer sun as it kisses the rolling hillsides, illuminating the scene in a golden hue. A myriad of greens ebbs and flows throughout the piece, suggesting the wild and untamed grasses waving gently in the Highland breeze. The centrepiece of this visual composition is the River Coe itself, meandering with cool, crisp grace through the valley. Its waters, a mix of tranquil blues and invigorating whites, reflect the sunlit sky and the shadows of the surrounding mountains. The dappling effect on the water's surface, typical of impressionist works, invites the viewer to feel the movement and the refreshing touch of the river. Dotting the riverbank, wildflowers add splashes of color—vivid pinks, oranges, and purples spring forth from the canvas, suggesting a natural kaleidoscope that captivates the eye. The stones scattered along the water's edge introduce an earthy solidity, with their greys and browns grounding the scene in the quiet might of the Highlands. This art print is a piece of visual poetry that celebrates the wild, untamed elegance of Scotland's landscapes. It offers a moment of tranquil contemplation, serving as a window into the serene majesty of a Highland summer, perfect for bringing a touch of Scotland's enchanting outdoors into your living space.

"Monet's Garden with Cat" is an original Impressionist painting by Robert Padovano. This paintings depicts the garden of the famous French Impressionist Monet in Giverney France. I particularly love the purple irises that line the path on each side. I added the cat for a touch of charm to an already lovely location. The painting measures 16 x 20" and is done in acrylics.
