Pointillism in The Seasons Of Love

Narate Kathong is strongly influenced by George Seurat and Claude Monet who were icons of impressionism. Kathong forms paintings of Seasons Of Love by applying the Pointillism, an art style that captures light in its changing moment by using cube-like brushstrokes. The predominant art element in his works is through the thousands to millions of spots upon spots. When we see paintings closely, we see several dots and if we keep a further distance to see paintings, we see a spectacular landscape.

In his paintings, we do not see complicated colors and layouts. Narate Kathong is an artist has excellent techniques and delicate mind who usually uses 1 or 2 colors in each of his landscape paintings. With simple and straight expression, he creates a majestic composition, as though being transported to a surreal, yet nostalgic ground. Senses of peace and tranquility are formed.
