Lillian August

Lillian August’s landscape, figural, and genre scenes emulate those of French impressionist and realist artists like Claude Monet and Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot. Instead of overlaying several colors in glazes, she would place thick paint on her canvases using a palette knife to “render the movement of light in color” and “produce an effect of chromatic richness analogous to that of a transparent painting.”
