"Hidden Falls"
-----Center point compositions are usually banal and
uninteresting. Why spoon-feed a compositional array of visual ingredients to
the layman or self-appeased viewer?
But, Hold that Thought!…..In Charles Pabst’s new Giclee
releases of his current art market collections; “Hidden Falls” stands out as an
eloquently whispered soliloquy of sensational thought. This simple arrangement
of balanced tree line landscape novelty forces one to question the innocent
single point perspective that drives your eye straight into the timidly tiered
waterfall. I can regard Pabst of being a “Seasonal Shah” of impressionistic
autumn and fall majesty. His T.
Kinkade-esque approach to sensational landscape paintings opt for a simplistic
manner of understanding and appreciations. The foreground, middle and back all
line up in a proper pattern of textbook elegance. Overly straightforward this
type of aesthetic is the most basic and uncomplicated way for all of us to
appreciate talent and intent.
However, audacious are his choices of color palette;
over-emphasizing the decision for gallant golds, tantalizing tangerines,
boisterous bolds of seasonal hues- reflective of specific geographical
locations (mostly Arizona).
With a center of ambient sunlight blanketing the “v”- shaped
core of the painting, Pabst relies on one elegant but conceptual line of light
filled intensity to draw you in. A mystical moment of perfect celestial swathe
of warm and inviting sunlit aubade caresses you as you enter this aura of
painterly sensuality.
“Hidden Falls” harks back to time spent alone with his
beloved wife exploring unbeaten paths for the perfect hidden treasures. Mission accomplished Mr.
Pabst. Limited to an edition of only 50, this hidden gem in the new releases
has a small print edition that makes for a coveted acquisition.

I really like his style and colors. And it is a great waterfall! So is the other one at the top.
