Into & Beyond I, 2022, oil on board, 30 x 30 cm

$1,400.00

Into & Beyond I draws on an experience at Ganguddy, Dunn’s Swamp in Wollemi National Park, where pale trees reflected in still water became a quiet focal point within the landscape. Positioned at a distance within the composition, the trees suggest both presence and invitation, drawing the viewer deeper into the scene.

Executed in oil on panel over multiple sittings, the painting combines layered texture, muted tonal relationships, and intricate brushwork to evoke the atmosphere and stillness of the Australian bush. While grounded in observation, the work reflects a contemplative and emotional engagement with landscape in the tradition of contemporary Romantic painting.

Medium: Oil on panel, ready to hang
Location: Wollemi National Park, NSW
Subject: Trees reflected in water within bushland
Palette: Green, Black, Blue, Yellow Ochre, White, Grey, Violet, Raw Umber

How to Hang Your Painting:
This small landscape painting of Blue Mountains bush 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.

This original oil landscape 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.
