Effusion, 2026, oil on board, 50 x 40 cm

$1,600.00

This landscape painting explores reflection, spatial ambiguity, and the instability of perception through the shifting surface of water. Suggestive forms emerge and dissolve within the composition — reflections becoming landforms, colour becoming space — so that the image oscillates between observation and abstraction.

The painting invites a slow apprehension of the image, where surface, reflection, and atmosphere remain unresolved and in continual movement.

Executed through layered brushwork and tonal variation, the work reflects an ongoing engagement with the ephemerality of landscape and the unstable relationship between what is seen, remembered, and imagined.

Medium: Oil paint on panel, ready to hang
Location: Capertee Valley, NSW, Australia
Subject: Reflections and atmospheric forms within a creek landscape
Palette: Yellow ochre, white, sap green, burnt umber, cobalt blue, indigo

How to Install or Hang Your Painting:

The Australian gallery standard recommends hanging a painting so that the mid-point of the artwork (height) is approximately 155 cm from the floor. This may vary depending on ceiling height, interior furniture, or whether it is a space where people will be sitting or standing, such as a living room or dining room. It is advisable to avoid hanging oil paintings in direct sunlight, as UV can damage the pigment, resulting in discolouration.

Framing:
An original oil painting in a contemporary style is often left unframed when installed in art galleries, public or private collections. This work is currently unframed; however, framing can be arranged by agreement. The artwork is ready to hang on Australian gallery standard D-hooks and wire.
