about this painting:

SPAIN SALAMANCA

Salamanca – the ever-young Spanish city

Perhaps there are not so many large canvas paintings for sale dedicated to this amazing city. Barcelona, Madrid and Granada are much more mainstream nowadays and, therefore, are captures in oil much more often. However, when Afremov was visiting Spain, no other city inspired him more than this Southern pearl. His admiration we can now see on a talented canvas.

Very Spanish mood

When an artist chooses a large canvas for the future work of art, it means that the painting is going to be a sort of important stage in the artist’s creative career. The point is not just to fill this amount of space with well-matched colours, but to convey some big idea and reflect something very imposing that impressed the artist so much. In this painting, we can name at least three things that have to be noticed:

- The strokes. There are no strict lines, and everything seems a bit blurry. Why? If you ever visited a hot city near the sea during summer you know that the stones of the ancient buildings warm up during the day. Then, they release the heat in the atmosphere, which gives to the air extra texture and meltiness. Afremov uses chaotic wide strokes and high-quality oil paint to recreate this impression on canvas.

- Composition. Afremov chooses an interesting angle to show the main sight of the city – the Saint Martens cathedral. It includes the view on the river and a famous bridge, one of the most recognizable places in the city. Afremov demonstrates one more time how attentive he is to details and how he lovingly observes every new place to show it from the best side.

- The subject. The painting is a beautiful and harmonious cityscape. The artist avoids talking about any potentially disturbing or stressful situations. When looking at this painting of Salamanca, you only think about positive and uplifting things.

What is the secret of this peaceful cityscape?

We all know what kind of magic Leonid Afremov uses to make his large wall art so appealing:

- his amazing technique;
