About the Item

Saint Hippolyte le Graveyron as it’s fully called is a place I like to return to in my paintings. It has a quiet spell-like quality Along the crest of the hill is a line of Mediterranean pines standing out against the skyline. Have you noticed, sometimes at dusk, the light shimmers with a luminescent green-blue? In the painting, the full, glowing, moon rises through the trees. Colours are altered, subtly. I sought to make this a moment so hushed and quiet, a time to stop and reflect. This 31.75? x 31.75? x 1.8?, acrylic on deep edge canvas, is ready to hang. The edges, painted white, are 1.8" deep so framing is not required. All my paintings are varnished to add a protective coat against dust. Only the highest quality archival fine art grade acrylic paints are used on the surface gessoed and prepared by myself. Packing: all work is packed professionally using protective compressed foam boards 2 cm deep so that your painting arrives safely. Thank you for taking the time to look at my work. A statement on why I make Art. How can I make tangible on a paint surface a world that is full of magic and poetry? My finished pieces do not mirror a subject matter but are a representation of emotions felt in a specific time or place. Often the fleeting effect of a particular light and colour in nature are held somewhere in my visual memory. At some point, this takes centre stage on the painting I am working on. It may appear during the process of creation without an obvious connection to the subject matter at hand and yet, it adds another dimension, a particular atmosphere. These processes are ways and means by which I express my connection to nature in all its richness and variety. I moved from Ireland to France to create a new body of work with the regular discipline of painting small oil studies on panel. These inform larger landscapes, still lifes and abstract works. I hold a Bachelor Degree in Fine Art (BFA). My work is in collections in France, the USA, Great Britain and Ireland. :: Painting :: Contemporary :: This piece comes with an official certificate of authenticity signed by the artist :: Ready to Hang: Yes :: Signed: Yes :: Signature Location: Front bottom left and back of canvas :: Canvas :: Diagonal :: Original :: Framed: No
