Where the Light Leads; Through the Paddies

£5,350.00

Karst mountains near Ninh Binh, Vietnam, under an eerie pollution-tinged sunset.

I spent 6 weeks in Vietnam this year and the dramatic karst mountain landscape and rice paddies were breathtaking.

I encountered this mesmerising scene with the eerie orange pollution-tinged sunset while cycling out to dinner as the fireflies were emerging around me. It felt beautiful but strangely unsettling. But, the distant man in blue was reassuringly leading the way.

I wanted to exaggerate this unsettling glow in my painting, losing the edge of the mountain into the sky and capturing the reflection on the water, path and glowing off the man’s hat so you can really feel that eerie, hazy effect.
