About the Item

This painting, titled After Light by Janine Robertson, is an evocative landscape that captures the fleeting, dramatic colors of a sunset over a quiet marshland. The painting features a low horizon line, giving dominance to a vast, active sky. A dark band of trees and foliage stretches across the middle ground, silhouetted against the light. In the foreground, still patches of water reflect the darkening sky, broken up by stretches of green marsh grass. The mirror-like quality of the water adds a sense of profound stillness to the scene. This is an oil on aluminum work. The metallic base allows the artist to achieve a specific luminosity in the sky, where the light seems to radiate from within the paint layers rather than just sitting on the surface. Robertson masterfully uses horizontal bands of color to represent layers of clouds. The transition from the deep, cool blues and greys of the upper sky to the "afterglow" of fiery pinks and oranges near the horizon creates a powerful sense of time passing. The brushwork is soft and blended in the sky to suggest mist and light, while more defined, rhythmic strokes are used in the foreground to give form to the marsh and reflective water. About the artist: Living in Madison, Connecticut, I began my career as a muralist and trompe l’oeil painter doing significant commercial and residential installations throughout New England. Eventually I changed my focus to landscape painting in oil as my work as a muralist became increasingly detailed. In this medium I discovered a more satisfying, intimate scale for my work. It was in my exploration of landscape painting where I discovered a love of aluminum and copper as a substrate. The ultra smooth surface highlights brushstrokes and texture while adding an ethereal quality to my work. The depth and light of the reflective surface adds wonderful dimension to my paintings. Most of the inspiration for my work comes from the marshes and woodlands in the Northeast, particularly those along the New England shorelines. I often begin my painting en plein air and then complete them in my studio in order to ensure a strong composition and more effectively explore the effect of light and time on the landscape. Some of my work is also created through imagination using fragments of photos and memories to create a compelling composition.
