30 Mind-Blowing and Vivid Paintings by Phan Thu Trang - Award-Winning Landscapes

Landscape painting is a fascinating and absorbing subject for many artists who want to explore the genre in their work. Those who love the freshness and radiance of Vietnam and its landscapes will enjoy the work of Phan Thu Trang. Trang’s naive, decorative works are characteristically Vietnamese. Making the landscape genre her own, Trang simplifies individual elements to their bare essentials. With a limited palette, the artist uses texture to define her subjects. Smooth areas of bright, monotone colour contrast with the lush, painterly impasto used to define tree leaves. A vibrant, vaulted canopy of trees dominates spindly trunks. Born in Hanoi, Trang, like many other artists, has images of the city and northern villages engraved in her mind. She brings these vivid memories of the villagers and their lives to her paintings.
