Landscape

A vibrant rural landscape rendered in pastel, depicting a hillside settlement with terracotta-roofed buildings nestled amongst cypress trees and cultivated fields. The composition employs bold, rhythmic colour bands that suggest agricultural plots and terrain, whilst the mountains rise dramatically in the background. The artist’s confident use of pastel creates a sense of movement through the layered landscape, with warm ochres and greens dominating the middle ground. The work demonstrates the particular expressivity achievable through pastel on paper.
