Glowing Cliffs, Glen Davis, 2023, oil on board, 30 x 54 cm

$1,450.00

Glowing Cliffs captures the escarpments of Glen Davis in the late afternoon light, where shifting shadows and saturated colour transform the sandstone cliffs. Painted en plein air, the work was executed rapidly and directly in response to the changing atmosphere and fleeting qualities of the landscape.

Broad, expressive brushwork and tonal variation evoke the rhythm and structure of the mountains while retaining a sense of immediacy and movement. The painting reflects an engagement with light, place, and the physical experience of painting within the landscape.

Medium: Oil on panel, framed in Tasmanian Oak
Location: Glen Davis, Capertee Valley, NSW
Subject: Sandstone escarpment in evening light
Palette: Pink, Orange, Blue, Grey-Green, Violet
