The art of watercolor cityscape 001

Dusan Djukaric watercolor cityscape


I feel this watercolor by Dusan Djukaric is very representative of his work. Like many of his cityscape, it is soft and poetic, with an atmosphere of immediacy and warmth. There is a good balance of lost and hard edges throughout the painting that give the overall a good rhythm. Dusan lives in Belgrade, and in most of his cityscape, we really get the feeling of that former Yugoslavian city.

Dusan on his own work:
"I liberated watercolor painting from the ultimate verism, I am not interested in making my work only a mimetically true reflection of reality in the manner of (hyper)realism, but wishes to emphasize some features characteristic only for this art, to thereby separate and elevate it.

So lets enjoy enjoy all the atmosphere, sfumato mists, evaporations, water steams, rains or smog from his watercolor cityscapes. To see more of them, just go to Dusan web site, where you can enjoy many of his great works.
