Upper Nile Road, Glen Alice, 2023, oil on board, 30 x 54 cm

$1,450.00

Upper Nile Road was painted en plein air during a painting trip to Glen Alice in the Central Tablelands of New South Wales. The work captures the expansive paddocks and deep blue mountain ranges of the region through broad, expressive brushwork and shifting tonal relationships.

Executed outdoors in changing light and wind conditions, the painting reflects the immediacy and physicality of working directly within the landscape. The composition balances openness and movement, drawing the viewer through the foreground paddocks toward the distant shadowed ranges.

Medium: Oil on panel, framed in Tasmanian Oak
Location: Glen Alice, Central Tablelands, NSW
Subject: Golden paddocks and mountain ranges
Palette: Yellow, Blue, Grey-Green, White
