BELA BODO Signed, Framed Oil Painting Impressionist
Offered here is an original Signed and Framed Bela Bodo Oil painting on canvas. In this work we see a lush countryside painted with thick expressive brush strokes reminiscent of the forceful and gestual approach used by Impressionist masters. Bodo's oeuvre often includes images culled from nature and this work inspired by the sublime beauty of a slow summer afternoon is very characteristic of the artist's natural and organic interests. A subtle color palette of pale pinks and greens gives this work a tranquil and serene feel. A molded gold frame with ornamental detailing completes this work perfectly. However, this piece can also be shipped without the frame. * * Artist: Bela Bodo Medium: Oil on Canvas Date: 20th C.

Bodo studied at the Budapest Academy and Vienna Academy of fine Arts before coming to the United States in 1957 to pursue his arts career in New York. Since that time, he has lived on both coasts and the Midwest, eventually settling in his present location in Northern California. Bodo's success garnered him much attention and eventually Walter Foster Publication commissioned the artist to create and design a book on the art of painting landscape scenery. The resulting publication, 32 Painting Lessons in Oil, is a widely popular text and carried in bookstores worldwide. A romantic impressionist, Bodo's work in landscapes and his magnificent florals are full of energy, reminiscent of those artists who revolutionized the Paris art world a century ago. Noted for his masterful use of luminous color and light, Bodo regards texture as an integral part of the finished work. * * Give any room an Impressionist flair with this Original Signed Oil Painting by the famed artist, Bela Bodo!
