Orignally from Russia, Zufar Bikbov is a painter now based in the U.S. whose landscapes and occasional still life paintings are painted with bold confidence based on a solid draftsmanship.
His color palettes are balanced between high chroma highlights and restrained supporting colors, giving a feeling of bright but naturalistic color.
I particularly admire the way he often suggests his landscape backgrounds with a minimum of detail, while maintaining a variety of color within them.
Bikbov’s website includes galleries of his work, and indicates that he sometimes conducts workshops via Zoom, though none are listed at the time of this writing.
