Evensong IV, 2022, oil on board, 20 x 20 cm
A serene dusk sky over the Blue Mountains, this alla prima sky painting evokes feelings of restfulness and repose. It transports the viewer into a vast theatre, where the players are clouds, the stage is the vault of the sky, and the setting is the mountain ranges. Though a small artwork, this contemporary Australian landscape painting captures a quality of light that local audiences will recognise. As I painted it in one sitting, it has a deftness of touch and expressive marks that evoke shifts in wind and atmospheric conditions, mirroring the movements of the heart.
Medium: Oil paint on a professional artist-quality plywood panel, ready to hang
Location featured in the Painting: The Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia
Genre: Sky Landscape Painting, Contemporary Australian Landscape Art
Style: This is an alla prima oil painting made directly, in a single sitting. Working wet-on-wet in this way ensures spontaneity and immediacy in the mark-making. It is imbued with spiritual and emotive meaning and stories, making it characteristic of the Romantic style of landscape painting.
Subject: Serene dusk sky over the Blue Mountains
Colour Scheme: Blue, Yellow, Magenta, Cadmium Orange, Indigo, Raw Umber, Violet
Features: This sky painting captures a vast space, including large, voluminous dark clouds and whimsical cirrus drifts. The clouds appear naturalistic, yet the emotive and spiritual stories in the painting make it a Romantic artwork.

How to Hang Your Painting: This small sky landscape painting of a Blue Mountains dusk sky is easy to install and ideal for display above furniture or in an intimate domestic interior. Best suited to a well-lit space in either modern or traditional interiors, good lighting enhances the full depth and vibrancy of the colour palette.
According to Australian gallery standards, artwork should be hung so the centre of the piece sits approximately 155 cm from the floor. Adjustments can be made based on ceiling height, surrounding furniture, and whether the space is used for sitting (like a dining room) or standing (like a hallway). To preserve its condition, avoid placing oil paintings in direct sunlight, as UV exposure may cause fading or discolouration.
