Oil on board

A very textured mid century modernist landscape composition, painted in oil onto board.

This painting is a landscape that captures the essence of a rural scene with an emphasis on earthy tones and expressive brushwork.

The foreground consists of a flat expanse of sandy or golden-yellow terrain, possibly a field or open land. A few trees with slender forms are positioned toward the left side of the composition, bending slightly as if swayed by the wind. In the middle ground, darker green hills stretch across the canvas, adding depth. The background features a bold and expansive sky, rendered in deep, intense blue tones.

The artist employs thick, textured brushstrokes, particularly evident in the sky and foreground. The impasto technique creates a dynamic and tactile quality, emphasizing movement and energy within the scene.

This landscape painting conveys the raw beauty of a natural setting, emphasizing the texture of the land and the vastness of the sky. The expressive use of color and brushwork suggests the artist’s emotional connection to the scene, capturing the interplay of light, movement, and the rugged beauty of the outdoors.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. See less
