Inspired by the quiet grandeur of the area around Lake O'Hara, Alpine Blue captures the powerful beauty of rugged peaks, snow-covered slopes, and crystal-clear mountain waters. This painting explores the harmony found in nature through bold brushwork, expressive marks, and a rich palette of saturated colour. The interplay of deep blues, cool shadows, and warm autumn tones reflects the ever-changing relationships between light, land, and water. Created from a love of walking and exploring these wild places, this piece invites viewers to pause, reflect, and feel a connection to the enduring beauty and peacefulness of the mountains.
