This little alla prima oil painting of a tumultuous sky in evening light is part of a series of landscape paintings entitled Near and Far, that explore mark-making and immediacy. It evokes both a universal experience of nature and a particular moment I encountered in the Blue Mountains near my studio. It was painted with broad brushes in a bold palette and captures the fleeting changes in light and colour and the dramatic movement of the clouds.

  • Medium: Oil paint on plywood panel, ready to hang

  • Location featured in the Painting: Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia

  • Genre: Contemporary Australian Landscape Art, Alla prima Landscape Painting

  • Style: This landscape painting appears to employ a realistic style; however, it is imbued with spiritual and emotive meaning and stories, making it characteristic of the Romantic style of landscape painting.

  • Subject: Dramatic Clouds over Australian Bush

  • Colour Scheme: Pthalo blue, indigo, pink, sienna and burnt umber

  • Features: A cloudy evening sky over a dark horizon

How to Install or Hang Your Painting:
This painting can be hung in most rooms, above furniture or on a smaller wall area, such as in a corridor. As it has areas of both intense and muted colour, it suits a well-lit space in either a traditional or modern home, so that all the subtleties in colour can be appreciated.

The Australian gallery standard recommends hanging a painting so that the mid-point of the artwork (height) is approximately 155 cm from the floor. This may vary depending on ceiling height, interior furniture, or whether it is a space where people will be sitting or standing, such as a living room or dining room. It is advisable to avoid hanging oil paintings in direct sunlight, as UV can damage the pigment, resulting in discolouration.

Framing:
An original oil painting and in a contemporary style is often left unframed when installed in art galleries, public or private collections. This work is currently unframed; however, framing can be arranged by agreement. The artwork is ready to hang on Australian gallery standard D-hooks and wire.
