Lifting of the veil. No7

I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the country which I used to create this painting, and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community.
I pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging

Lifting of the veil No7 is an expressive representational piece Inspired by an early foggy morning at the Achreon cutting
Delicate layers of the constrained pallet colours worked in scumbling, dry brushing and glazing medium combine to create a moody piece that brings a sense of early morning lights kissing the the fog in the valley and the distant clouds.
The gloss varnish awakens the subtle colours and gives depth to the works.
The mist will gradually and subtle change as the light changes throughout the day.
The edges are matt varnished and the work is signed on the back up neat the top.
A round mid size piece of acrylic on board with a wire hanger. Lifting of the veil No7 has depth that creates a scene of clam to any room.

I have been drawing since I could put crayon to a wall.

Born in Central Victoria and living in Beechworth, Joanne Hill has had limitless inspiration with her favourite subject matter, the Australian landscape.

Joanne's current practice combines her fundamental training in Fine Art and an Associate Diploma in Fine Art (Graphic Design). Joanne's feels her design background influences how she presents her selected subject matter and colour utilization.

Joanne is currently enjoying utilizing a brush and sometimes airbrush with quality acrylics and mediums to her creative work. Favouring mostly dark or strong coloured gesso bases to express her work on to encourage bold colour paly.
Her work often has a combination of both bold brushwork and intentionally placed layers that are balancing with subtly detailed strokes. Placed in an impressionistic style so they allow the changing light to play and effect on how the image is seen.

This result in works that have a bold dynamic presence. Most of Joannes work is on the amazing changing environment from the outback, to central farmlands and occasional seascapes. Attempting to capture the rawness and power of this amazingly vivid environment and the creatures. Joanne currently continues to explore and master her materials by using the natural environment as stimuli and a marker. Continually pushing to improve each time and giving every piece its own unique atmosphere through colour selection, layout design or brush stroke utilization.

Constantly finding inspiration from her travels, Joanne photographically captures imagery, Then processes to create the images starts by striping, cropping, and small adaption occur until the image arrives at a visually interesting presentation. Within her various bodies of work, Joanne wants to encourage the viewer to connect, explore and reflect on their own relationship with the landscape evoking certain memories and emotions
