Still life oil painting, and artistic portrait style by artist Nguyen Le Anh
Vietnamese painter Nguyen Le Anh has created many impressive works despite only following the path of painting recently. The artist has also participated in many domestic art exhibitions.
Artists Nguyen Le Anh often creates oil paintings acrylic paintings on canvas. In addition to oil paintings of still life subjects, old-city landscape paintings, and especially artistic portrait paintings, the artist has established his own style.
We can feel nostalgic emotions while enjoying the artist’s paintings, which were painted in the past and still evoke the feeling of noble girls and elegant living spaces in fashionable landscapes. The artist’s portraits of old ladies, in which we can see the noble girls’ portraits, evoke these sentiments first of all. We can see much more of the human soul’s autumn-like qualities in the artist’s still life paintings, which are very unique in color and composition. The artist has layered time on those objects to create the impression that “this is definitely not an image of today!”
ArtLance would like to offer you some wonderful artistic portrait paintings by artist Nguyen Le Anh!
Painter Nguyen Le Anh with the theme of paintings depicting the life of the Vietnamese generation “neither far nor near”
In Nguyen Le Anh’s paintings, viewers see different perspectives on the same scenes, but most of them are strongly affected by the painter’s classical colours. Nguyen Le Anh, on the other hand, is seeking to explore themes about “the new life of Vietnam during the reform period.”
The artist described: “I am a storyteller. Those stories may be pieces of my memories, of those around me or of those who have affected me in a lasting way. I said that the pictures look both familiar and strange. The pictures might seem familiar because they are pictured through the lens of the narrator, who was then me, walking between the real world and the imaginative one.”
Rather than following in the footsteps of contemporary art movements or imitating classical styles, Nguyen Le Anh’s paintings preserve his artistic integrity and distinctiveness. Going his own way, the artist has created his own artistic path. The artist was able to reproduce the lives of “the young generations of a time”, according to Nguyen Le Anh. They were said to be “not far but not close”, although they were not close. They lived “halfway between the past and the future”. It was the period when the country was at peace after the war, when life was still difficult. However, the lives of the 7x, 8x, 9x generations did not prevent people from experiencing the joys of childhood, the aspirations of youth. This period was characterized by mild changes in Vietnamese society, making it difficult for young people today to remember it.
By focusing on the concerns of his generation, painter Nguyen Le Anh has been able to create serene village scenes, record the feelings of the generation toward the new life during the period of reform, and the phase of innovation. Through their paintings, Nguyen’s works have delivered cultural values, helping people to appreciate the beauty of their homeland in addition to generating the love of each person for their homeland.
