Snowpatch Spire, acrylic on canvas by Anthony Neilson
36″ x 48″ 91 cm x 121 cm
This is the view of Snowpatch Spire from the top of Bugaboo Spire in the Bugaboos. One of my first paintings to explore the use of intersecting planes of light to try and describe movement and the interaction of the mountain with the sky. I am influenced by techniques of a relative of mine, Lyonel Feininger, an expressionist painter from New York, who studied in Europe.
The image above shows the painting on a standard height, 8′ wall to give you perspective on the size. My paintings are all acrylic on canvas with a 1.5″ “gallery” profile frame. All of the paintings are sold without decorative frames and can easily be displayed without a frame or by adding one to suit your own taste. The exposed 1.5″ edge is left as canvas and the staples are not visible. In my opinion they look fine like that and actually makes it look authentic!
