Panas Tytenko

These... "form [in the] spectator a sense of tranquil enjoyment. ... Tytenko's still lifes are centred on flowers, usually in vases, sometimes in baskets. Tytenko's landscapes are typically of sunlit leisure in leafy settings, with the figures dressed in summery clothes, absorbed in some simple pleasant activity, reading, sketching, fishing, feeding ducks or paddling in the sea. Many of these images have the feel of holiday snapshots, but they differ from such photographs not only by the brushy technique which declares the painter's surface, but also by an absence of the self-conscious awareness of the viewer that is usually a feature of the holiday photo.” Dr. Pat Simpson (University of Hertfordshire)
