Persian Architect

Introducing: Golnaz Vala

From what I have been able to gather from her weblog Golnaz is a painter, web designer and much more, but what aroused my senses were her paintings; drawn from objects which are seemingly familiar with the artist herself. (familiar people and surroundings)

First view of her works reminds one of the great impressionist artist Paul Gauguin and a touch of Paul Cézanne , but this reminder exists for only a few seconds; for if her paintings are looked at with more care the viewer is able to come to  different conclusions which are of the artist’s own style and  merits.

Golnaz’s courage to use abundant amount of contrasting colours has worked in some of her work but not in all. Most of the artist’s subject-matters consists of female characters whom all share a common value between them: the essence of being ordinary; which I might add, is not an easy essence to express, but Golnaz has been able to capture and express this value to a great extend.

Golnaz is a young artist whom I believe has some way to go, but on the other hand she has been able to demonstrate her talent in color usage and her good understanding of subject-matter. In long term I hope that we can see more usage of different compositions with more subtle use of her brush techniques in her works.

I truly believe that Golnaz has something to offer to the world of arts, just wait and see.
