About the Item

Cloudy Hills Fields The west side of the South Island in New Zealand has a ridge of hills and mountains that have evolved from volcanic activity over many ages. This paintings shows two steep ridges ascending from the flat plains below. Low clouds are drifting and swirling around the windy flow over the tops. Artist information: Clive has always been interested in painting the world around him since his early school days. On holidays, he learnt to paint landscapes with his father, which he continued and developed later. This interest would lead him to take an art degree at Manchester College of Art Design, resulting in an early career as a product designer. Family commitments allowed him to run a successful commercial company using his creativity. His interest in painting landscape subjects remained, and now, with developed skills, he can devote himself to painting full-time. His recent work has moved from a strict representational depiction of subjects that deal with colours, shadows and patterns to abstract concepts within landscape. This direction has allowed him to focus on forms and structures in a scene that still represent the subject, but allow a wider interpretation of colour, texture and features within the painting. Certain forms and boundaries become visually exciting patterns, allowing the creator and viewer to share the experience that is the ‘life of a painting’. Clive uses rough drawings as a starting point for a picture, developing the structure of a painting with ‘loose’ rendered paint marks, which he then works up as the painting progresses, revealing those important links to the observed location. Underlying core colours set the fundamental tone of his paintings, often applying contrasting colours to emphasise form and pattern, providing vibrancy and balance within the composition. Most of his pictures are square rather than a landscape rectangle format to encourage the viewer to ponder what may lie outside the boundaries of this restricted form. Acrylic and occasionally oil paint are his chosen mediums, with the additional use of pastel crayon for under drawing. Most work is on prepared plywood, which supports heavy mark-making and thick impasto, forming an ideal base for scraping back or revealing underpainting.

Windswept Moorland, Abstract Landscape Painting, Expressionist Art, Layered Art
Located in Deddington, GB
The textural, earthy tones of the moor are complimented by the green/greys and dusky pinks of the sky. I wanted to create movement in this piece, with fast moving scudding clouds. Chalk pastel and Inktense were worked over the earth colours to create moorland grasses. This piece is presented in a soft, off white deep cut mount. Luisa Holden artist paints original art and is available to buy online and in our art gallery at Wychwood Art.
