Wolf Kahn
American · b. 1927

Wolf Kahn worked extensively with pastels and oil pastels to create atmospheric, softly luminous landscapes that share the same muted tonal quality and contemplative mood found in Roaming. His layered pastel surfaces evoke a similar sense of serene stillness and quiet movement through landscape.

Hiroshi Senju
Japanese · b. 1958

Hiroshi Senju creates minimalist, atmospheric landscape works rooted in Japanese aesthetic sensibility that closely mirror the serene and meditative qualities of Roaming. His soft, muted compositions convey movement and contemplation within a spare, abstract landscape vocabulary.

Luc Tuymans
Belgian · b. 1958

Luc Tuymans employs a deliberately muted, desaturated palette and layered surfaces to create atmospheric works that carry a quiet psychological weight, echoing the contemplative and abstract qualities present in Roaming. His restrained approach to mark making and tonal softness align closely with Kamijo's pastel technique.
