George Van Hook shares his love of prosaic landscape in his paintings, visually responding to the selected environments. “I want the color to be beautiful and the drawing firm and secure.” He is an acclaimed artist, well known and awarded for his "en plein air” works where he paints outdoors and in the moment, immersing himself in the nature that he captures. Van Hook works with the thick physicality of the impasto style, paired with his careful and realistic eye, and presents locations with his interpretation of light, shadows, color, all with a masterful focus on composition.
Presenting an upward perspective of a farm set within a meadow dappled by flowers, George Van Hook implements impasto to communicate the vibrance of the sunny day. Gold framing included. 11x14". Oil paint.
