Utt Elman <Poppies and Margarets> Oil painting 50x60cm

Wood Elman

Herman goes to southern France and Tuscany to sketch. A low hilly ridge can be seen faintly beyond the rolling Tuscan plains. In the foreground, delicate red poppy flowers and white and yellow daisies are painted with green stems. In the slight breeze and sunlight, the flowers boasting their own colors are immersed in a sense of freedom. A path through the wilderness meanders up the hills. If you can find yourself in bright sunlight in a landscape like this, a year's worth of stress will be released into the sky.

He paints beautiful rural landscapes from southern Germany and the Tuscany region of Italy, as well as nostalgic street scenes from Paris.
