His landscapes use short, expressive brushstrokes which gives the impression of great texture. His work seems impressionistic as the colours are so bright and vibrant however he doesn’t represent colour in the same way at the impressionists as he focused on conveying emotion in his work instead of an accurate portrayal of colour. His forms are also not hyper realistic and seem to blend more together rather than being defined.
He was never formally a part of any particular movement but his work is seen as very Expressionist.
He was influenced by artists such as Vincent Van Gogh and Edvard Munch, as can be seen by the vibrant colours and expressive brushstrokes with non-accurate forms such as in Munch’s work like ‘The Scream’.
