Evensong XVII is an alla prima landscape painting inspired by a still winter afternoon in the Blue Mountains. Broad, immediate brushwork captures the shifting forms and luminous colour of the sky, evoking the quiet atmosphere and expansive space of the landscape.

Executed wet-on-wet in a single sitting, the work retains a freshness and spontaneity in the surface and mark-making. The dream-like quality of the composition reflects an engagement with light, memory, and the contemplative traditions of Romantic landscape painting.

Medium: Oil on panel, ready to hang
Location: Blue Mountains, NSW
Subject: Winter sky above the Blue Mountains
Palette: Yellow, Indigo, Ultramarine Blue, Raw Umber, Violet, White, Crimson
