Original painting. Acrylic on canvas, 32.8cm x 32.8cm (framed). 2024. Signed in glitter glue on lower right hand.
Please be aware there is a minor imperfection on the top of the frame - this is not visible from the front and hardly noticeable. This is due to me completing the framing myself. Usually the process goes very smoothly, however, in this instance a screw got stuck and slightly split the wood. I have done my best to remedy the issue and make it as unnoticeable as possible, but would still buyers to be aware of it.
"Untitled Landscape Painting was painted while I was in New Zealand/Aoteorea in early 2024. The scene was inspired by a real view from a family member’s house I stayed at in Matakana. I began the piece there and completed it in Auckland, painting the frame to match and extend the sky."
"New Zealand is known for its breathtaking scenery but I also feel personally connected to it. My mum was born and grew up there and I’ve been lucky enough to visit multiple times as a child and adult."
"Heading out this time, I planned to experiment with expanding into landscape painting. I wanted the pieces to be simple yet impactful in style, focusing on bold, fresh colours and textural nuance. My hope is that Untitled Landscape Painting can lend a similar feeling of peace and serenity to the viewer as I got from gazing out at the rolling expanse of greens and blues I saw in Matakana.”
