Warrumbungle Dreaming II, 2022, oil on board, 30 x 40 cm

$1,200.00

Warrumbungle Dreaming II was painted en plein air in Warrumbungle National Park following a hike to a rocky escarpment overlooking the surrounding bushland and distant mountain ranges. The work captures the expansive atmosphere and distinctive forms of the Warrumbungles through direct observation and expressive mark-making.

Executed wet-on-wet in a single sitting, the painting retains an immediacy and physical energy in the brushwork and surface texture. Naturalistic colour relationships and broad tonal contrasts evoke the rugged terrain, layered vegetation, and vast spatial depth of the Australian landscape.

Medium: Oil on panel, framed in white timber, ready to hang
Location: Warrumbungle National Park, NSW
Subject: Bushland and distant mountain ranges
Palette: Green, Yellow Ochre, Violet, Raw Umber, Burnt Sienna, White, Indigo

How to Hang Your Painting:
This framed, small plein air landscape painting of the Australian Central Tablelands is well-suited to intimate domestic interiors and may be displayed effectively above furniture or within smaller architectural spaces. The work is best experienced in a well-lit environment, where the tonal variation and surface detail can be fully perceived.

For optimal presentation, the centre of the artwork is generally hung at approximately eye level, though placement may be adjusted in response to ceiling height, surrounding furniture, and the proportions of the space.

To preserve the longevity and stability of the surface and pigments, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight should be avoided.
