Blue Treasure Wood (2023)Acrylic painting
by Amanda Horvath

In this vibrant painting, I have expressed the essence of the forest inspired by woods close to my home in the Peak District. The expressive brushstrokes capture the dance of light through a beautiful canopy, where delicate sunlight cascades through the leaves creating dappled shadows and light over the forest floor. There is a sense of distance in the painting almost like taking a journey to a quiet glade. The colours suggest forest flowers and there is a feeling of fresh breezes on the air. An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on deep edged canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. I paint some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife, creating a contemporary painting, which lies somewhere between abstraction and realism. The painting continues round the sides, it is signed on the side, a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang.
