Original artwork description:

Backlit is a 40 x 30” (approx 101 x 76 cm) realist oil painting on canvas.

Inspired by summer visits to the English east coast town of Aldeburgh, Christopher Witchall continues his preoccupation with the movement and colours of the ocean, a movement frozen in time between the ancient past and an endless future.

The artist’s unsentimental approach to his subjects combine two great passions - a love of traditional painting techniques and a fascination with the photographic image. The result of this are paintings that are both painterly and highly realistic.

Backlit is painted on a deep edge stretched canvas, so there is no need for framing and can be hung immediately. It is signed on the back and supplied with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.

Materials used:

Oil painting on deep edge canvas. No need for framing.
