Skape

A procession of sheep moves across an ochre landscape under a brooding sky, attended by a solitary figure in deep purple robes. The composition employs bold, directional brushwork to convey movement and atmosphere, with the flock rendered as a flowing mass across the composition’s middle ground. The palette of warm earth tones contrasts with cooler sky blues, creating a contemplative mood. Oil on board allows for the visible, expressive handling of paint that characterises this work.
