A Sunburnt Land, 2023, oil on linen, 51.3 x 76.75 cm
This painting was mostly painted on the spot but I always find some minor touches in the studio are often needed. A few liberties were taken as the landscape has been arranged to suit my composition, and when it comes tp making images from life, the composition takes precedence over what is actually in front of me.
I often use the car as an easel and during the progress of this picture, a few motorists stopped to see if I needed help because they thought the car was bogged or had broken down. So thoughtful of them!
