Tos Kostermans: cocky and famous

He calls his own style of imrealism, namely, the synthesis of impressionism and realism, the expression of real feelings - if in fact. But connoisseurs of art do not agree to open a new trend for the sake of the opinion of a single, individual artist, therefore they consider him to be hypperrealists of the modern art world.

Despite this, the work of Tos Kostermans to the brim is filled with bright colors, a very rich palette, but always with a sense of proportion. The subjects are very diverse, mostly romantic, and their heroes are more than real - these are our contemporaries, but very famous. They became heroes of oil paintings Tiger Woods, Jack Nicholson, Keith Richards, Scarlett Johansen, Gaddafi, Silvio Berlusconi. And many more will be - necessarily.

 

This collection of portraits is called "Daring and famous" - and if you think about it, the characters are united by the artist on this principle. In the audacity of Kadaffi no one doubts, however, and Nicholson, and all the others are not very far from him Michael Cheval art for sale. It is not known whether this is a real character trait of these people or an integral part of the image, but vivid colors emphasize boldness even more. Definitely, this was the far-sighted idea of the artist.

Tos Kostermans (Tos Kostermans) has been engaged in his artistic work for thirty-five years. The birthplace certainly influenced his work: they became the school of the works of great compatriots - Karel Appel, Van Gogh and Kees van Dohen. But the true inspiration for his paintings was not imagination, not the mood, and not the image, but the very behavior of people. Apparently Vladimir Kush art for sale, that's why he chose the impudent, and the famous ones got by accident.
