| For more than 35 years, Anne Belov has concerned herself with the portrayal of light, structure, color, and the specificity of place and time. Landscape, still life and interior imagery are all in her repertoire.
Belov comments: “Drawing on visual resources collected over the past three decades, I chose images that emphasize extremes of light and darkness. From Italy to the Great Wall of China, from Amsterdam to rural England and back to Whidbey Island, I pay homage to the artists who inspired me in their dramatic use of light and dark.
Anne continues to enjoy painting in oils on linen panels. The depth and luminosity particularly suits her subject. She has also been working in mixed media, using watercolor with interspersed layers of color pencil, sealing each layer to provide additional tooth for the pencil as well as protecting the layers of watercolor. The resulting images are more detailed than her oils, but with rich color and luminosity. The practice of working in multiple media allows her to impose the techniques of one media while working in another.
