Black Mountain is a dramatic mountain lake at sunset: a jagged black peak rises on the left, a snow covered mountain glows white and violet on the right, and between them a pale sun hangs in a sky of orange and gold. Dark blue pines frame the view, red and white bushes crowd the near shore, and the lake carries the whole sky down into the foreground in a long path of light. It is a scene of opposites, fire and ice, black rock and soft snow, and that tension is what gives the painting its energy.

The painting belongs to my Luminous Landscapes series, where I chase light in nature, from misty mornings to glowing dusks. Here the light is the loudest in the series, a full orange sky against cold blue shadows, and I pushed the contrast on purpose so the peak would stand out like a silhouette cut from the sunset.

The canvas measures 80 x 60 cm (31.5 x 23.6 in), a horizontal format that sits well above a sofa, a bed or a sideboard. It is a statement piece for a living room, a dining room, an office or a mountain cabin, and it reads clearly from the far end of a large room because the shapes are big and the contrast is strong. On a dark or charcoal wall the orange sky lights up the whole space.

It is painted in oil on stretched canvas with brushes and a palette knife. The rock faces and the snow are built with the knife in thick layered strokes, so the mountains have a real relief you can feel with your fingertips, while the sky is blended smooth. The work is signed and varnished, the sides are painted, and it arrives ready to hang with no frame needed.

It ships stretched on its wooden bars in a sturdy protective box, never rolled, by tracked and insured courier from Lisbon, Portugal, usually within 3 to 5 working days. Keep it away from direct sunlight and damp, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and the varnish will protect the colors for decades. If you have a question about the painting or would like to see it in a particular interior, send me a message, I reply quickly.
