Oil paint on canvas

122W x 91.4H x 3.8D cm

Red Earth by Meredith Howse captures the colours of the Australian outback with a beautiful blend textures and shapes. This artwork is brought to life with high-quality Winsor and Newton oil paints, which give it a rich and tactile quality.

The painting's palette included inviting natural hues. Earthy pastel ochre tones dominate, evoking the dry, rugged landscapes of the continent. These tonal rusty reds and yellows ground the viewer in the arid terrain, creating a sense of place.

Interwoven with the earthy tones are subtle blush pinks, applied to add a touch of softness and femininity to the composition. These pinks hint at the hidden beauty of the outback, where even the harshest landscapes can reveal moments of delicate charm.

Contrasting against the warm earth tones are cool blues that symbolise the vast expanse of the sky and the presence of water, offering a sense of balance and tranquility to the piece.

The painting is beautifully framed in natural oak wood, which complements the earthy tones and enhances the overall presentation. This framing choice ensures that the artwork seamlessly fits into a variety of interior design settings. Frame dimensions 126W x 95H x 5D cm.

The inclusion of a signed Certificate of Authenticity adds to its value, reassuring collectors of its genuine origin.
