The mountains peek beyond the forest, offering a sense of hope and serenity. This scene was captured during a fleeting moment as we drove past in the car, and it took my breath away. I quickly snapped a photo, which later became the inspiration for this painting. Though brief, that moment filled me with a deep sense of beauty and calm. The rich, dark teals in the mountains promise a peaceful stillness, inviting your eyes to rest upon them. The canvas was primed with a yellow ochre underlayer, which glows softly through the pale blues of the sky, adding warmth and light to the piece. I used oil paint to create texture, leaving visible brushstrokes that give the painting a tactile, expressive quality.

‘Emerald Embrace’ is a one-of-a-kind original, and once it’s sold, it’s gone forever.

This painting brings a sense of rich calm to any space, a perfect moment of tranquillity to return to whenever you need it.
