today i came across the work of norwegian artist frits thaulow. i was instantly captivated by his rendering of water, especially slow-moving water. digging around the many sites with references to thaulow, i found out that in 1883, during his stay beside the simoa river at modum, he perfected his talent at painting scenes with slow-moving rivers. in the curlicue lines and sweeping eddies are the brush strokes of a master who knew the flow and thoughts of water.
la dordogne.
river view.
water mill.
winter landscape.
river.
cottages by a river.
i could look at these forever.
