Artwork Description

"Transient Moments" is a beautiful atmospheric watercolour painting. I completed this painting after a trip to the Yorkshire Dales in the UK. Inspired by the changing colours of the landscape and the transient shadow shapes created by the incoming cloud I felt the watercolour medium captured the glow like no other medium can. To produce variegated watercolour washes on this scale takes many years of practice and dedication to watercolour painting. It is my favourite medium. This painting was one of only 10 finalists in the Australian Artist Magazine, Landscapes Prize, March 2013. This original painting comes with an off white matt of 100mm (seen in the additional image). It also comes with the foamboard backing to protect it. It will only need a frame and glass and it can be hung.

Dramatic and lively floral painted in a loose style known as semi-abstract. Red flowers with green foliage interweave with soft and ethereal wet on wet passages interweave with intricate, delicate drawing.  

This painting is a one of a kind; unusual and outstanding in its technique and style.  It is painted on pure cotton watercolour paper. In this painting, vibrant red and yellow flowers bloom with the dynamic effect of wet-on-wet technique, infusing the scene with a sense of movement and spontaneity. Against a backdrop of slate gray-blue, a compelling contrast emerges, and the delightful soft edges seamlessly enhance the overall composition. The use of the paper's natural white lends a refreshing touch to the artwork.Vibrant red and yellow flowers bloom with the dynamic effect of wet-on-wet technique, infusing the scene with a sense of movement and spontaneity.

The painting is in the style of contemporary impressionsim which allows the essence of the subject to emerge rather than concern for realism.  It is done in a negative painting style with numerous transluscent watercolour layers building an incredible illusion of 3 dimensionality.  Ochres, sienna and soft gum leaf greens dominate this subtle and intriguing work.
