Wind - Split Gum Tree

In this series, Charles explores a deep connection to the Australian landscape, drawn to three defining elements: expansive skies, vast land, and the enduring presence of gum trees. Working in a landscape impressionist style with bold, expressive colour, he captures the heat, light and atmosphere that shape the country’s character. The works speak to space and resilience — endless horizons, grounding terrain, and gum trees standing steadfast within it all.

This artwork has been painted with many layers of professional quality acrylic paint and medium to give it depth and richness. It has been framed using a high quality Tasmanian oak. The painting has been signed on the back.
