Wolf Kahn at Ameringer McEnery Yohe




And now for something completely different - to see the woods as a place of wonder, comfort, and good energy!  Wolf Kahn is one of my favorite colorists!  I love being in the woods and I love the feeling of being surrounded by the peaceful and colorful tricks of light and space that comes in being in an environment of almost completely obstructed view.   

Wolf Kahn is a figurative painter, painting from observation, memory, and emotion.   With the abstract expressionist influences of paint handling, zealous mark making, and brilliant color combinations, Wolf Kahn makes images that walk in both realms of realism and abstraction. 
The show is unfortunately down now, but if you are like my family, you will be taking some long walks in the short afternoons with your family at this time between holidays.  This is the time when the light dances through the landscape in the brilliant colors of winter twilight.  Think of Wolf Kahn and the colors of the woods while you are out there!
