Mrozinski describes in great detail his experience viewing the exhibition “A Modern Vision: European Masterworks from The Phillips Collection.” He writes from his own point of view, putting the readers in the exhibit, looking at the paintings themselves. Through the way he talks about the paintings, he seems to have more of an appreciation for the work and the thought that goes into a piece of art than the average viewer might. He takes notice of everything. Mrozinski's experience with his own art practice helps him point out the skill and technique that went into each stroke of each painting. He puts himself in the shoes of the artists, dissecting the piece and taking note of the types of strokes used and the texture of the canvas. For example, his discussion of Morisot’s paint application techniques and the way it affects the work: “Morisot’s masterly use of paint through unconventional means, perhaps rags or fingers were used to slightly smear or rub the paint, creates both psychological intrigue and intimate presence.” Based on his writing about his artist residency at Fellenz Woods, this seems to be the way he views the world, not just works of art. Paying attention to and appreciating every detail.
