Shimmering Glade Acrylic

In this painting, I poured my soul into creating a vivid woodland scene that dances between reality and imagination. With acrylics and many mark making techniques, I layered hues and textures, crafting an ethereal atmosphere. This painting is a fusion of expressionism and impressionism, with semi-abstract touches evoking the mystical interplay of light and shadow. When you invite this piece into your home, it promises to bring a sense of wonder, tranquillity, and an enduring connection to the natural world's serene beauty.
An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on deep edged canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. From these beginnings I work intuitively, painting some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife. Harnessing optical mixing techniques employed by the impressionists. I continue working until the painting reaches a natural conclusion. The painting continues round the sides, a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang.
