Peter Corr Painting Sale



This highly textured and imposing oil and cold wax large-scale painting has recently been purchased by a collector. It was displayed at the Darryl Nantais Gallery, Winter Exhibition 2023/24. I have included close-up images of the painting so that you can see the rich surface cold wax and oil impasto and how the vertical rhythm of the trees is echoed in the swirling textures. This painting was created using a variety of tools including palette knives, rollers, paper and card printing techniques. Oil Ppint thinned with turpentine was also poured and trailed across the surface to generate and replicate the effects of natural growth.

I am interested in the hypnotic and contemplative qualities of these compositions and the intervals between the trees are a critical component of this painting.
