Skyfall

Part of my “Primitive Circles” series, where circles of colour blend and juxtapose to give the painting form. Hints of Pointillism and the Post Impressionist, Seurat. As with Impressionism, I love the way the painting emerges when you step back from the canvas. As for the title, Skyfall”, the sky appears to be falling down to meet the foliage. The general idea that we would be in severe trouble if the sky should fall down is widespread and immediately recognised throughout the Western world.

Nola Baddeley
Melbourne Artist Biography

Nola has been an artist and has had a love of painting since her formative years. Although having had formal training, her process is still evolving through experimentation of various mediums and subject matter.

The human experience,  flora and romance capture her imagination. She is inspired by the Impressionists and their use of colour and light, but also admires the contemporary artists such as Canadian , Bobbie Burgers and Russian Impressionists, Mstislav Pavlav and Ivan Stravinsky.

Her paintings are mainly bright, painterly acrylics on stretched canvas, often with textural effects.

This award-winning artist has exhibited and sold in several Art Shows, both in Perth and Melbourne, including the prestigious Camberwell Art Show.
