Leonid Afremov by Leonid Afremov — Fine Art

This print reproduces a street scene by Leonid Afremov in thick oil paint laid with a palette knife. Warm reds, yellows and oranges meet in quick strokes that hold their shape. Fine art paper keeps those marks steady and the colour stays even across the sheet.

The frame has a clear edge in white, wood, dark wood or black so the painted surface reads plainly on the wall. A white frame lets the bright palette sit without a heavy border. A black frame keeps the eye on the paint rather than the edge.

In a kitchen you notice the warm yellow strokes from the doorway while water boils. On the wall beside the table you see the short knife marks and the mix of reds and oranges.
