In the continuity of his works, he appears to us quieter, more conventional and shows more beautiful colour relations consistent with his decoration nature.
He does not undertake risks for the sake of present-day fashion but follows his line by saying that art is only the real one. The creativity of Pashk Pervathi makes one feel respect for tradition but at the same time for the new forms.
Pashk Pervathi entered Albanian painting with realistic landscapes of his birthplace, just like his predecessors had done. He had been exhibiting his art in Lezhe and in Tirana while looking deep down himself. When new vistas opened for Albanian artists at the beginning of the 1990ies, his painting came to us with a new image. Unhurt from the schemes of socialist realism, Pashk Pervathi found it easier to venture in new paths and, within a short time, found another way of painting. His tableaux immediately caught the eye at the national exhibitions in Tirana.
His landscapes are full of light and contain joyful and clear colours, which have become a part of his artistic individuality. The freshness with which he paints variegated nuances is the source of strong emotions. They also create beautiful colour relations and have turned into a special characteristic of his style. The Pervathi Studio is taking the dimensions and the value of a small museum. Unlike some very well known intellectuals from Lezhe who grew in the capital, Pervathi built his centre at his birthplace. Even the city of Lezhe has assumed ever-greater dimensions thanks to his numerous creations, which can be found in many foreign museums and galleries, such as the regional Museum of Ceuta, Spain. It always keeps his tableaux The Autumn in its exhibition line.
