This painting forms part of a series dedicated to aerial perspectives, inviting viewers to contemplate the landscape as a bird might while soaring above Broughton Creek in Berry. The composition centres on the creek itself—modest in scale yet visually striking, its surface gleaming with the shimmer of sunlight. This radiant effect lends a sense of tranquillity and quiet to the waterway, underscoring its gentle presence within the broader scene.
To the right of the creek lies Berry Mountain, where the terrain dramatically shifts. Here, I have imagined the land appearing dry and yellowing, a stark contrast to the lushness of the creek below. The painting captures the intensity of full sun beaming down, which emphasises the aridity of the mountain landscape. This interplay between the shimmering green of the creek and the parched earth of the mountain creates a compelling visual contrast, highlighting the delicate balance between water and land, and the transformative effects of sunlight on the environment.
The painting is sealed with varnish and has a matte black aluminium floating frame.
