A Beautiful Day (2021)Acrylic painting by Phil Smith

30.5 x 23 x 1.8cm (unframed) / 30.5 x 23cm (actual image size)

£500

This is a colourful semi-abstract and one of my most spontaneous works. I had some paints left from another painting and quickly applied them to the canvas with a brush. Large areas of horizontal colour are broken up by a few strong vertical brush strokes, giving a feeling of a clearing in a forest on a beautiful day. Later additional marks were added with a palette knife and finally I realised that the brown mark in the bottom right corner looked like a old peasant woman and added a green mark to indicate a load on her back.

It is a very happy and joyful painting. As it is quite small it would best suit an intimate space. It is ready to hang.

Materials used:

Acrylic paint brushed over canvas. Additional marks made with paint from a palette knife.
