Evensong XVIII is an alla prima landscape painting developed in a single sitting in the studio, capturing the fading light and expansive atmosphere of the Blue Mountains at dusk. Though modest in scale, the work evokes a strong sense of openness and spatial depth through tonal contrast and layered colour relationships.

Executed wet-on-wet in oil, the painting retains a sense of immediacy and spontaneity in the brushwork. The silhouetted ranges and luminous sky create a contemplative atmosphere, reflecting an engagement with light, stillness, and the emotional resonance of landscape.

Medium: Oil on panel, ready to hang
Location: Blue Mountains, NSW
Subject: Dusk sky and silhouetted mountain ranges
Palette: Yellow, Cadmium Orange, Magenta, Blue, Raw Umber, Violet, White
