My first attempt at a landscape à la Barbara Rae. I spent a few days on this. It seemed to me that her paintings are made up of a few large, well-composed shapes, made exciting by the use of lively and complex strokes and textures, variations of hue, tone and intensity. She uses oils and silk screen. I tried to get the effect in acrylics.
Plans for the painting, which I based on a landscape photo by Craig Johnson (shared with permission)...
Acrylic on box canvas 50cm square...
