Michael Dillmann
![]() |
Michael Dillmann has preference for working with egg tempera on wood panels.
Viewing Dillmanns paintings from a distance, they nearly appear photo-realistic, however, as one views his work close up, the more diffuse the images become and literally surround the observer. The colours become more vivid and dominant and at the same time the observer is given the possibility of visualizing the luminous colours and bold brush strokes applied.The objects seem to be on the brink of dissolving without ever quite relinquishing their former origins.
