plant
Terlikowski's early works show a relationship to Fauvism , later mainly impressionist landscapes and cityscapes (of France, Venice, Spain and North Africa), portraits (such as of Antoine Bourdelle , Henri Nouvion and Moise Kisling's wife ) and still lifes . His works are characterized by sharp color contrasts. He used thick oil paints and the painting knife , which gives his pictures a clear surface structure. He was also active in wall painting .
Terlikowski's paintings are owned by the Musée National d'Art Moderne in Paris and the art museums in Bordeaux and Troyes .
