Johannes Võerahansu

Johannes Võerahansu has mainly become known as a painter, even though his drawings are not few in numbers or not so well-known. One may of course ask, why does the artist, at whose disposal are colours, canvases and brushes, refer to such a laconic genre as drawing? “Kolga-Aabla vaade” gives us one of the possible answers. Here we can see a really scanty work, actually even mainly contours that slightly resemble us of a black-and-white photo. Without superficial effects the essence of the drawing is its core. Of real importance are here only the mood, motif, road and at the road houses, a tree and slightly cloudy sky. And nothing else is needed.
