Saturation, 2026, oil on board, 50 x 40 cm

$1,600.00

This landscape painting investigates reflection, saturated colour, and the instability of perception through dense, gestural mark-making. Broken reflections of cliffs, trees, and sky dissolve into painterly passages that hover between abstraction and representation.

The richly textured surface catches and reflects light, creating a painting that is simultaneously tactile, luminous, and spatially fluid.

Medium: Oil paint on panel, ready to hang
Location: Capertee Valley, NSW, Australia
Subject: Reflections of cliffs, trees and sky within water
Palette: Ultramarine blue, violet, burnt sienna, sap green, white

How to Install or Hang Your Painting:

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 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.
