A small virtual exhibition: the landscapes of Russ Potak and Kristina Botha

Hills & fields // Coast & Sea

The complementary contrast in the expressive landscape paintings of two contemporary artists

These are special times, and special times often give us new ideas, and so Russ Potak and I decided to exhibit some of our recent landscapes together to see if they are fitting together. In this times it is important to stay together (with physical distance of course) - and together we are always stronger. 

Russ' and my landscapes are completing each others: They are both painted in a free and loose way, using a well matching color palette - but they stand as well in a nice complementary contrast which is very nice for the eyes of the receptionist. We also have both those light-dark-contrasts, which bring dynamic and - yes - a bit of dramatic in them too. But in the first play it's our working together in art - like siblings in art; even though we aren't even on the same continent - which brings some very special high tension in this mixture.

First of all: a warm welcome to all our lovely visitors out there and cheers to you.

Just take a glas of prosecco or red wine and feel comfortable!

My dear friend and brother in art Russ Potak and I decided to do this tiny virtual exhibition due to the actual lockdown in times with the corona virus. Social media, web blogs and video chats are an amazing possibility to keep in touch with each others while we are trying to give our best to cope with social distance at the moment. 

And here it begins: the virtual walk through our recent artwork.  If you are interested in buying some original art directly from the artists, or if you have any questions about our work, please feel free to message us. Contact below. And now: enjoy! And thanx a lot for visiting us!
