Echoes of the Land

A striking mid-century modernist abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition presents a stylised interpretation of nature through bold form and gestural brushwork. Two dark, vertical trees anchor the composition, their forms fragmented into thick, angular blocks of olive green, mustard yellow and inky black. The landscape is rendered as interlocking planes of colour – deep green hills, brown patches of earth, and a slate-toned pathway – leading the eye toward a serene body of pale blue water, all beneath a moody, indigo sky.

Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the work distills the natural environment into geometric abstraction. The brushstrokes are broad and intentional, layered with visible texture that suggests movement and depth. The palette is earthy and subdued, yet infused with a quiet vibrancy, reflecting the artist’s affinity for structure and form over literal representation.
