Percival Pernet
Small village in autumn and Le Salève

About the Item

Work on canvas Grey wooden frame With frame 75 x 86 x 4 cm This captivating work depicts a rural landscape in soft, earthy hues, evoking a peaceful, harmonious atmosphere. The rolling hills, in subtle shades of brown and green, dominate the composition. The village buildings in the foreground are painted in simplified geometric forms, reflecting a cubist approach that lends a modern dimension to the scene. The trees, whose rounded foliage contrasts with the angular lines of the roofs, add an organic softness. The artist skilfully plays with perspective and depth, creating a sense of fluid movement through the landscape. The restrained use of the chromatic palette intensifies the visual unity and underlines the elegance of the composition. This sober yet sophisticated painting reveals an intimate connection between nature and human habitation.

Here, he abstracted the city skyline of Hudson, NY. Buildings and rooftops in shades of magenta, teal, and green are segmented in the foreground and cropped with black power lines. A soft yellow sky is layered with thin strokes of gesturally applied pale blue paint, furthering abstracting the city landscape. The piece is in excellent condition and ready to hang as is. The sides are painted a very dark, warm magenta so framing is not necessary. About the Artist: Growing up in Puerto Rico, I observed how people and nature could co-exist in harmony. Today, that principle guides my design and artistic work. My paintings are expressions that draw upon my life experiences, traditions, and surroundings.
