Painting Pengosekan style
During the 1960s, a group of young painters working in the Ubud style and living in the village of Pengosekan on the outskirts of Ubud came up with a new approach, subsequently known as the Pengosekan style. From the Ubud-style pictures, the Pengosekan school isolated just a few components, specifically the birds, butterflies, insects and flowering plants that featured, in miniature, in so many of them, and magnified Ihese elements to fill a whole canvas. The best Pengosekan paintings look delicate and lifelike, generally depicted in soothing pasiels of pinks, blues, creams, browns and greens, and slightly reminiscent of classical Japanese flower and bird pictures. To see some of the finer pictures, you can either go to the. showroom in the village of Pengosekan, or to one of the Ubud art museums.
