Johan Abeling is a contemporary Dutvh painter who has taken the sensations of atmospheric perspective, mist and fog and made them the predominant motif of his paintings.
He creates relatively simplified compositions, often of a few trees set againat what appear to be open fields. Abeling’s touch moves them into spaces of quiet contemplation and a slight edge of otherworldliness.
His website galleries are arranged by year, accessible at the top of the page, and as you go back his subjects are a bit less immersed in atmosphere (images above, bottom), so you can see the progression of his approach.
