The Artwork of Leonid Afremov
Belarusian painter Leonid Afremov is one of the most colorful painters you’ve never heard of. His skill with a palette knife and oil paint creates vivid scenes and cityscapes full of bright colors and watery reflections. His thick strokes are almost mosaic in nature, but the result is not without detail where the colors merge. Afremov’s landscapes capture the emotion of a casual stroll through an old Belarusian city, with all the vibrant color and culture alive in this artist’s perspective. [afremov via llgd]
these are lovely – so vibrant and exciting! and who knew there were palm trees in belarus?
Great job you mentioned him! He’s one of my faves!
Great art and a great website, now added to my blogroll – congrats.
Wow.
These pictures are so lovely :)
The man walking under the canopy of trees is my favorite. Incredibly intense color and thecoolist does the pictures justice. I love color and the simplicity/complexity of B/W as seen in The Ruins of Detroit. Love this website, thanks again!
