Blustery Afternoon, Glen Davis, 2023, oil on board, 30 x 54 cm
As the title suggests, this painting was made in gusty wind that almost took the easel sailing. I stood above Glen Davis, overlooking the valley and mountain range of the world’s widest canyon to create this plein air painting. It evokes the changing light and colours of that windy afternoon in the gestural, fluid brush strokes.
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: Rocky mountains surrounding a valley with windswept clouds across the sky
Colour Scheme: Yellow Ochre, Indigo Blue, Grey-green, White, Burnt Sienna
Features: The feeling of the wind is evoked in this plein air work. The clouds seem to be travelling swiftly across the hazy sky, and the mountains appear dark and moody against the golden paddock in the valley. This plein air painting suggests my deep connection with Capertee - the beauty and sublimity of the landscape.
