Torn Sails

1997, Oil on canvas, Seascape Abstraction, 81x100 cm Read more

In this dynamic composition, Valdis Bušs captures the vitality of movement and light through his signature fusion of abstraction and seascape. Bold strokes of cobalt, turquoise, and emerald are interwoven with flashes of red and yellow, evoking the rhythmic energy of sails cutting through wind and water. The sweeping arcs and textured layers of paint suggest the forms of yachts in motion, yet the image transcends literal depiction—becoming an exploration of colour, balance, and motion itself.

Bušs’ painting technique is unmistakable: paint applied thickly with a palette knife, creating a rich, tactile surface that glimmers with life. His expressive abstraction transforms the maritime theme into a celebration of rhythm and freedom. The interplay of vivid hues and spontaneous gesture speaks to the artist’s deep connection with nature and his modernist approach to form and emotion.
