Rowlett at 80 - Exhibition Video
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 тра 2022
- Watching George work was like watching a cat hunting: complete stillness and concentration, an arrested pose, followed by fast, fluid, movements. Every day he would disappear to the lake shore where he would stand in the teeth of the weather under a great oak tree … The resulting work was not just evocative, but more moving and passionate than I could have imagined!
(Howard Hull, Director of Brantwood)

For those who don't already know, George used exclusively just a putty knife and sometimes a finger or two to paint these and his other paintings. He angst over every detail, and then with with a galp of paint on the knife he made his stroke. No one like him. The self portrait at the end was painted when he was 80 years old as a consignment. Well can't say enough, so I'll leave it at that
he is dead ?
never had heard of him until recently, he has huge talent
i have the privilege and honour of knowing George ...he is an amazing man with a great sense of humour
Reminding me off Vincent Van Gogh's amazing powerful paintings. ❤🙏🇬🇧
This guy is a genius
Stunning painter!!!
Brilliant.
This is painting.
Great talent, great work; inspiring to watch the creative process; the hard work appearing “effortless”; may God grant this man many more years of work and the joy the work brings!!!!
I love these paintings! And hats off to the curator. Beautifully hung.
The gesture of the stroke of paint is breath taking to me! Energy and movement really makes the picture come to life for ne. Thanks!
Thank you rowlett
Fantástico genial genial
The paintings defy reality. Can the paint really be this alive?
Love this work. Powerfull ...
And it truly moves me emotionally.
Awesome! Such an inspiration
لا أستطيع أن أتأمل لوحات هذا الفنان بمعزل عن شخصيته. فلقد طبعها بحركاته وسكناته ونظراته وبحثه اللا متناهي عن شيء ضائع . أنا مندهش ومنبهر أمام هذا الشخص. 😱🤝.
إحتراماتي سيد george rowlett
Amazing depth and colour. Each stroke has feeling. Beautiful art.

สุดยอดดด
the camera is moving way too much, find it hard to enjoy the beautiful paintings.
It looks as if the paint is still wet on some. So beautiful.
thank you for zooming in on the goobs
❤
Es fuerte la pincelada. La pintura es extraordinaria.
Juicy, delicious and underrated. LOVE!
With respect one would suggest that before the camera takes the detail close ups of the work we see a shot of the Complete painting.
Unusual and powerful work. I am a painter also.

I find the effect given by really thick oil paint, rather moving and beguiling, especially as presented by the great GR. I’ve never tried it myself, as I’d panic if I was to put out any more than a vapour of paint from a tube.
I gave up on oil paint eventually and found watercolour more suited to my timid style.
A great artist!??
Wery rowery lubię taką grubą fakturę stwarza dodatkową głębię i te pastelowe kolory rzucone jakby niedbale a jednocześnie w jedyne dla nich miejsce na świecie pozdro z Polski 😀👍
Just wonderful ❤ really wish I knew what kind of paint he uses.
Not sure of the brand, but it comes in large plastic tubs - specially made for thick impasto painting.
How do you varnish something like that? With that such thick paint it would be really hard to get an even coating right?
Georgen i madh
ПОТРЯСАЮЩЕ !... TOTALY AMAISING !...
Великий живописець.
What kind of material does he use?oil,acrilic?or another else?someone can tell me ,please
Me impacto esta Tecnica de Mr Rowlett alguien me podria decir como SE logra ese espesor de la pintura
Es una pintura especial para el impasto. Tiene más cuerpo que la pintura normal. Lo difícil, y admirable, es no perder el control del material pues se tiene que mantener un concepto de colores, forma, luz y profundidad con un medio casi incontrolable. Debes ver algunos videos de como trabaja. También cabe mencionar que trabaja en el lugar que va a pintar, ya sea un jardín, un paisaje o un autoretrato frente al espejo.
How would I get a painting
How do you get paint that thick to dry?
He must wait months or add a drying agent already mixed in as I don't see him add anything when I watch him paint. I asked the same.
Amazing work, music sounds depressing tho😂
Wonderful work, however, the filming of it was off. Give a view of each painting from a distance then a close up.
beautiful. wish they weren't framed for some reason.
На любителя......
Good sense of color not very dinamic paintings my opinion a bit overplayed
I love the Art and the Studio space is beautiful but .... the cat on the piano is annoying !!!
Who can i contact about acquiring a painting to hang in my home
I love the painting per se, however I just think being so realistic and pretty is a bit lacking in creativity and stretching the mind and visual language. I know the artist could do greater visual statements if he push himself and became more daring visually. I don't say this to offend, but it's just my perspective.
Really are you a painter, obviously not. His work is his own and I would be honored to have one. So make what you think he is not.
push himself ? it say he is 80 yo, he is perfect
They seem like very sad paintings.
