Artwork Description:

Frame size 36x48 inches. Awarded Trofeo Luigi Valenti, Cremona, Italy 2004. Awarded 1:st Price in Santa Maria delle arti 2004, Torino, Italy. Represented in the artdictionary 2004-2005 International Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Modern and Contemporary Art, edition Alba. The gossamer lightness of a gesture - Richard Solstjarna fascinates me with his suites of paintings. In some of his art I see the gesture - the rapidly sketched sign, a fleeting feeling flashing past - captured, ethereal and beautiful, on paper. My thoughts turn towards to ZEN Buddhism. I think of Japanese calligraphy, that lives a world apart from Western art. I see images that want nothing else but to capture the gesture as a movement, as a beautiful impression of the heart's song, or purity.
