The Seamstress - Figurative Paintings inspired by Grigorescu

Oil on canvas, 15cm x 25 cm

After I got an album of Nicolae Grigorescu I was impressed by lights and colors he used on his paintings, however no album can be compared with originals exposed in museum's galleries.

Looking to understand his art, I made a series of paintings inspired by Nicolae Grigorescu, three of them exposed on this blog.

Impressionism Influences - The Miss with Red Umbrella

Oil on canvas, 27 cm x 42 cm

Is painted in the same time with "Young Lady on the Cliff" and with the recommendation of my wife to add more summer flowers as it was my first intention and to color the umbrella in red. The effects are great.
