About this artwork
38 individually painted shapes to give the impression of a vast landscape as seen from a great distance or height. Features fields, mountains, hills, clouds and sky.
The sky in particular features a carefully mixed and painted gradient as day turns to night. The shadow of a cloud mass can be seen extending to its left, and into the sky.
There is the illusion of space, but all sections are laid next to each other on a flat surface, and the mind… follows the shapes through time and fills in the details.
This is an original composition that required careful measurements and skillful handling of tools and pigments to achieve the desired effect of colours constrained to crisp straight lines. The divisions between the sections are straight and quite visible. They often catch the light, and when they do, highlight the sections surrounding it.
