Description
The work is started from the desire to show the human being from other angles than we are used to, and the realization is inspired by outdoor bronze statues that, over time, acquire a fascinating greenish-whitish patinated color. Highly recommended for those who wish to own a statue in their home, but don’t have enough space!
Figurative expressionist or rather post expresionist work in which the attitude and mimicry of the character were pursued more than the physical details. To make it, multiple brush techniques, painting knife, but also pouring and splashing were used to create special effects.
It is inspired by the ancestral culture and tradition of the Romanian masks used around the winter holidays, but also by the German masks used at traditional carnivals, especially in the rural area of Bayern and Baden Württemberg.
Paintings signed “Gotschik” or “Roland-H. Gotschik ”can be found in private collections in Europe, America and Asia. Their resale value increasing significantly, even after only one year.
Important! After spreading the canvas on the wooden frame, please apply a bright transparent varnish layer (Firnis, Gloss, Vernis etc) on it. I didn’t do this because during the transport, which takes quite a long time, the canvas can stick and that would ruin the picture!
