Original artwork description:

Original title: June 9, cloud above the mountains, sunset

Landscape of Auvergne, France.
From the windows of my studio.

"The sun has set tonight in the clouds;
Tomorrow will come the storm, and the evening, and the night;
Then dawn, and its glimmers of obstructed vapors;
Then the nights, then the days, steps of fleeting time!"
Victor Hugo

This landscape is painted “alla prima” in one single sitting, with lively and spontaneous brushstrokes to attempt to capture the momentary effects of sunlight , the movement and the atmosphere.

The white finish on the sides of the canvas allows, if you wish, a frameless suspension.

Materials used:

This painting is painted with professional grade oil colors on a primed canvas. I prepare myself my canvases to create a texture specific to my painting needs and to insure them maximum longevity.
