Artwork Description

The Australian Outback at night is spectacular and at full moon it has a huge air of mystery and other-worldliness.

Using a monochromatic palette of dark blue, I was inspired by the full moon rising above the ridge with skeleton trees reaching upwards.
Parts of the track and bush are illuminated by the moon but the rest of the landscape is in shadow.

Acrylic on canvas.
This artwork is unstretched and will measure 106cm x 186cm when stretched

The total dimension of the unstretched canvas is 118cm x 198cm if you would prefer it to ship in a roll and have it framed.
