This article is recommended by Swedish artist Gustaf Fjaestad.
The painter is famous for depicting the beautiful snow-covered mountains of his hometown, yet in addition to painting, he is also a well-known local tapestry designer and even a champion skater.
Fjaestad has his own unique painting skills, he applies light-sensitive chemicals to the canvas, then projects an image of the scene to be depicted on the canvas as a preliminary light map, and finally uses these light maps to complete the painting.
His paintings contain a hint of abstraction, and at the same time, the low-saturation colors and the compositional composition make his works full of flat decorative beauty, from which we can see a little shadow of ukiyo-e, and the artist has found his own artistic style in the oriental aesthetics full of unspoken meaning.
The ethereal snow field is gentle and soft, and the pine branches are like waves that rush in the face, wrapping the viewer's gaze in the center of the picture, which is often the most eye-catching and moving place of the picture, the painter is very good at bringing his emotions into the work, so the potholed shadows are more than a layer of temperature, and the contrast between pink and purple and orange-yellow makes the snow scene present a unique beauty.
