The painting itself seems to take over and tell me what to do. This is especially true of this painting. It started out as a painting of Manly, a famous beach in Sydney, Australia, on a stormy day. Its still Manly, but somehow it has become a very romantic landscape in the 19th century tradition. It kept reminding me of a famous painting by Arnold Bocklin 'Island of the dead', which preceded Surrealism. I showed the painting to my 92 year old father and the first thing he said was that it reminded him of Bocklin. So the painting must have decided that Manly in a storm felt like an island of the dead. I am sure most Sydneysiders will disagree and I have to say that I think that Sydney is one of the great cities of the world, second only to Perth of course." 0677 Winter's Day - Manly 84 108 Oil by on Cat no - cms Paper Landscape NSW Sydney This painting is available as prints and cards - contact Jeremy for details Click here to download pdf file of availability and prices of paintings Tuesday, 26 January 2010 Printed 0677 Contact Jeremy www.jeremyholton.com email: Jeremy Holton phone +618 6394 1592 mobile +614 11580903 Jeremy Holton ARTIST: "The Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. This plateau with its deep almost inaccessible valleys really is blue. It was sunset and the cliffs glowed with orange light reaching a rich red in the valleys. In the distance tiny specks on the sheer cliffs were rock climbers finishing their last climb for the day. The air was filled with a vast presence and an infinite silence." 0676 Blue ladies 84 108 Oil by on Cat no - cms Paper Landscape NSW Sydney This painting is available as prints and cards - contact Jeremy for details Click here to download pdf file of availability and prices of paintings Tuesday, 26 January 2010 Printed 0676 Contact Jeremy www.jeremyholton.com email: Jeremy Holton phone +618 6394 1592 mobile +614 11580903 Jeremy Holton GALLERY: A view of Sydney, Australia on a stormy night in summer. The air is heavy with the scent of the suburbs and the sounds of the distant city. This will bring back memories to all of you who visited Sydney for the Olympics. There is one person in the painting. One person and a beautiful city. 0675 Fragrant dusk 84 108 Oil by on Cat no - cms Paper Landscape NSW Sydney This painting is available as prints and cards - contact Jeremy for details Click here to download pdf file of availability and prices of paintings Tuesday, 26 January 2010 Printed 0675 Contact Jeremy www.jeremyholton.com email: Jeremy Holton phone +618 6394 1592 mobile +614 11580903 Jeremy Holton GALLERY: For some reason this painting seems old in the tradition of rich earth tones and blues. There is a lostness and yet a warmth about the work. It will intrigue for years to come. ARTIST: "I love the late paintings of Lloyd Rees, how he somehow seems to conjure so much magic out of nothing. I guess that this is part of my homage to him, one of the greatest of Australian artists." 0672 Remember 36 46 Oil by on Cat no - cms Paper Landscape NSW Sydney This painting is available as prints and cards - contact Jeremy for details Click here to download pdf file of availability and prices of paintings Tuesday, 26 January 2010 Printed 0672 Contact Jeremy www.jeremyholton.com email: Jeremy Holton phone +618 6394 1592 mobile +614 11580903
