Artwork Description

'Upstream' is an original oil an cold wax painting of rugged textured creek banks surrounded by bushland and a stream meandering through the creek bed rocks. Very calming.

I used palette knives, brush and a light glaze for the water.

Artist Bio

Joe Faust (Proserpine, Australia) is a landscape artist who uses a combination of oil paint and cold wax medium to intuitively express the Australian bush.

Joe's painting process, his choice of color palette, skillful techniques with palette knife and squeegees add life, movement and light to his paintings is evoked by sensations from listening to varied music genres. His emotional response to these transcendent feelings is the source from which he achieves his interpretation of the landscape.

Inspired by a group of self-taught artists, the 'Brushmen of the Bush', Joe discovered distinctive techniques through experimentation and openness to new ideas and influences which has continuously evolved in an individualistic painting style.
