Artwork Description

Tall gums tower above dry grasses in the back paddocks behind the suburb of Kearns, the view stretching out toward the hills of Gledswood.
This was the first oil painting I painted en plein air; what a thrilling experience. The freedom to find a spot you like, setting up while battling the wind, and the rush of trying to get the painting down as the light changes and fades. There is a spontaneity gained from this kind of pressure - a good pressure.

Artwork currently in the process of being varnished and framed, hence delayed dispatch.

“I love observing light, its various effects, and the way our perception affects how we think of what we see. When I paint, I seek to explore this through landscape paintings featuring dramatic skies, and strong light and shadow, and often use these to highlight the everyday things we see as we go about our lives.”

Paul grew up in South-West Sydney in a family who values creative activities like music and art; and subsequently did a lot of both throughout his formative years. He now works full time as a 3D Artist for a video game studio in Sydney.
Although he seeks to paint as often as he is able.
