HILLSIDE BY THE SEA
Size: 17.9 x 21.1 inches (including frame)
Oil on canvas
A vibrant and pleasant modernist landscape painting that captures a sweeping view of a coastal hillside descending into a tranquil sea, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1987.
A cluster of red-roofed houses are nestled amid rich greenery, their geometric forms punctuating the organic curves of the land. The artist has placed emphasis on the play between land and water, with the luminous greens of the sloping bluff set against the expansive calmness of the blue sea.
The work is painted in a distinctly mid-century modernist style, marked by simplified shapes and strong areas of flat, vibrant colour. The brushstrokes are broad and assured, creating bold patches of green for the trees and fields, with subtle variations to suggest light and texture. The sea is rendered in sweeping strokes of muted blue, providing a serene backdrop that contrasts with the vivid land.
The palette is dominated by bright greens and earthy browns, harmoniously balanced with cool blues and soft greys in the sky and water.
The brushstrokes are confident and expressive, applied in thick, visible layers. They build up a rhythmic energy in the greenery while softening into smoother expanses in the sky and sea, striking a balance between vibrancy and calm.
This oil on canvas is presented in silver wood frame with decorative detail. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
