Glen Alice Pastures, 2023, oil on board, 30 x 30 cm

$1,100.00

Glen Alice Pastures was painted en plein air during a painting trip to Glen Alice in the Central Tablelands of New South Wales. Created in the early morning light, the work captures the contrast between golden paddocks, reflective water, and the deep cobalt shadows of the surrounding mountain ranges.

Executed rapidly in response to changing light conditions, the painting uses expressive brushwork and tonal variation to evoke the openness and atmosphere of the valley landscape. The composition reflects an immersive engagement with place and the experience of painting directly within the natural environment.

Medium: Oil on panel, ready to hang
Location: Glen Alice, Central Tablelands, NSW
Subject: Paddocks, dams and distant mountain ranges
Palette: Yellow, Blue, Grey-Green, White

How to Hang Your Painting:
This unframed, small plein air landscape painting of the Australian Central Tablelands 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, as 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.

Framing Details:
This original plein air oil painting is currently unframed, consistent with how contemporary artworks are often presented in galleries and private collections. It is fitted with professional D-hooks and wire for immediate hanging. Custom framing can be arranged upon request.
