Original Impressionist Art
Impressionism gave up on fixing things in place and went after what light was doing to them, right then. Up close there are only marks. Step back and they settle into a morning, a street, or weather you can almost feel.

The artists here are working in that tradition now. Each piece is an original, made by a verified artist and reviewed by a person. Since so much of this style lives in the surface, look through all of the photographs, and don't hesitate to message the artist about how a work was painted.
Questions, answered
- Are these by historic Impressionists?
- No. They are original works by living, verified artists working in an impressionist style.
- What makes a painting impressionist?
- Visible brushwork, broken color, and a focus on the effect of light, often worked quickly and from life.
- How far back should I stand from it?
- Far enough for the marks to come together, usually a few times the width of the piece. Keep that in mind when you choose a wall.
