Inspired by a wander around a local lake, I became fascinated by the shapes and lines of reflections, shadows, living trees and dead trees - what was real and what was submerged, a shadow or mirrored.
Painted using a layering technique, on a base of vibrant red. The paint is applied both thick and thin with different tools. The sky and lake are painted in in a final layer of oil to achieve a contrasting sheen to the rest of the painting.
Up close you’ll discover drips, soft blending, texture, scratched linework and sweeping brushstrokes
This vibrant yet calming artwork will bring the relaxing feel of Australian eucalypts into your room.
Nature’s Mirror has been created on a custom made deep edge cradled panel. I have painted the sides dark grey to complement the painting, so there’s no need to frame ( unless you want to)
