Oil Paint on canvas, stretched and ready to hang

Signed on the front

The Drive Home is a lovely square original abstract painting alive with colour, shape and line.
This painting is very much inspired by childhood memories of living in the countryside (I grew up on Yorke Peninsula and Kangaroo Island, SA) surrounded by farming land. I wanted to speak of a calming yet invigorating journey through nature in this work.
I have combined various viewpoints (from a distance, overhead and close up) to create a visually arresting image in which the strength of the rounded hill shapes balances the composition. Pattern is created in the lines of the paddocks and the organic hill and tree shapes.
Bright yellow-greens and vibrant orange-reds are offset by calming blues, browns and neutrals. The combination of colours is contemporary and will work in a variety of interiors.
I paint all the way around the edges of the canvas, removing the need for framing (although this can be done too) and allowing you to hang as soon as it is unwrapped.
This work is varnished and signed in the lower right hand side.
