Painted swiftly as the brisk morning breeze lifted off the Capertee Valley, this painting captures the broad floodplain’s vibrant colour, contrasting with the blue mountains behind. The clouds are almost imperceptible against the still-pale sky.

  • Medium: Oil paint on a professional artist-quality plywood panel, framed in Tasmanian Oak, ready to hang

  • Location featured in the Painting: Glen Davis, Capertee Valley, NSW, Australia

  • Genre: Contemporary Australian Landscape Art, Plein Air Landscape Painting

  • Style: Plein air landscape paintings are created outdoors, capturing natural light and the changing atmosphere. This technique results in expressive, dynamic brushwork that conveys spontaneity and a strong connection to nature, reflecting the artist’s direct experience of the landscape.

  • Subject: A wide floodplain with blue-tinted mountains beyond

  • Colour Scheme: Yellow, Blue, White, Raw Umber, Burnt Sienna

  • Features: The valley in Glen Davis is surrounded by a dramatic mountain range that is cast in deep cobalt blue shadows in the morning light. This plein air oil painting features a broad sweep of golden paddocks in the foreground, with the mountains behind. The viewer is drawn into the distance to the pale range along the horizon.

How to Hang Your Painting:
This framed, medium-sized 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, where 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.
