Detailed description

Picture "The Bath Tub - Le Tub 1885-86 after Edgar Degas" (2019)

For me, Edgar Degas is one of the most important Impressionists and I really appreciate his paintings. I found the original painting from 1885-86 very interesting and wanted to reinterpret it. I enjoyed adding some elements, including the sunflowers in the background as a nod to Vincent van Gogh and the painting on the wall, a painting of mine. Oil on linen - 30 × 60 cm. Signed lower left.

About Gary Westall

Born in London in 1960 and has lived in Germany since 1982.
I am self-taught and am constantly expanding my education and knowledge by regularly attending workshops and training courses in Germany and England. Painting has had a fundamental influence on my life. There is never a day when I am not involved in some form of painting. For me, painting is the breath to life. My works are predominantly landscape paintings, as I love to observe and experience nature in all its facets and diversity. That's why I love plein air painting. When painting plein air, I am right in the middle of nature and can experience, hear, see, smell and feel it up close. With my art, I want to encourage people to take a closer look at our wonderful earth, to experience it and to protect it. Sometimes I have the impression that many people do not see themselves as part of our nature through their behavior and expressions, instead living outside of it instead of in the middle of it. By playing with light and shadow and using vibrant colors, I want to share my positive joie de vivre and my admiration for nature. A clear view of natural things leads to a reverence for their beauty and diversity, which helps to preserve and respect them from war, abuse and overexploitation. Look at nature in its beauty and diversity, appreciate it and respect it. The reward will be peace! Best regards Gary
