Afternoon Light & Shadows: Maddens Rise, Coldstream
Afternoon Light & Shadows: Maddens Rise, Coldstream
Mary Newham
Oil on Canvas
60 x 90 cm
On the day I started this work I actually planned to paint facing in the opposite direction across towards the hills! But as I carried my easel and materials along the embankment beside the old shed I noticed how beautiful the shadows were when cast on the shed’s weathered surfaces. They became the subject and I returned at the same time on various days to capture the light and shade on the beautiful old building.
