Rytis Kubilius has maintained a lifelong fascination with visual arts, a passion that naturally steered him toward a professional career as a graphic designer and photographer. Over the years, however, he began seeking a more profound and personal means of artistic expression, which ultimately led him to painting. Through years of exploration and experimentation, he found his calling in abstract painting, dedicating himself to developing a unique style that distinguishes him within the art world.
Texture and the nuanced interplay of colors are at the heart of Kubilius’s artistic approach. He strives to produce artworks that appeal not only visually but also invite a desire to reach out and feel their surfaces, encouraging viewers to imagine their tactile qualities. Much of his inspiration springs from the endless diversity of nature, supported by influences from textures, people, literature, poetry, the cosmos, and music.
For Rytis Kubilius, painting is an intuitive and fluid process. He lets his instincts and emotions steer him, allowing each piece to transform as he works. This method produces paintings that are visually compelling and rich in a sense of movement and metamorphosis, mirroring the unpredictability and depth of his creative path.
Kubilius aspires for his artwork to delight art enthusiasts and viewers, offering experiences that are equally captivating to the eye and evocative for the spirit. His commitment to his art is reflected in his meticulous attention to every element, and he genuinely hopes that those who see his work will feel the same pleasure and inspiration he discovers through creating it.
About this artwork+
The painting depicts a dark, enigmatic forest or woodland scene, dense with vertical forms suggestive of trees. The overall color palette is somber, dominated by deep blacks, grays, and browns, punctuated with streaks of gold and patches of muted blue and teal. These colors create an impression of both decay and an ephemeral light, possibly the interplay of moonlight or mist weaving through the trees. The texture appears thick and tactile, particularly at the lower part of the canvas where the paint accumulates and takes on a rough, almost metallic quality, reflecting light and adding to the depth and mystery of the scene. The top section shows lighter, more ethereal touches, suggesting thin branches or foliage, lifted by lighter color strokes against the dark backdrop. The overall effect is haunting and atmospheric, drawing the viewer into a quiet, twilight-lit world.
