Blue Haze, Summer.


Blue Haze, Summer, 2023, oil on canvas, 46.25 x 66.5 cm

One of the most striking characteristics of nature is the subtlety of its colours. So subtle are they that they seem to be transparent as if not to be there at all. The colour blue is perhaps the most dominant and lends an aura to the natural world that is both poetic and powerful.

This painting is a simplification of the actual scene, as all of my paintings are, and of course the scene in is always changing so there needs to be a certain removal from what is being seen and painted.
