a close-up of Julia Brown's hand holding a paintbrush and working on an abstract painting with red maple leaves

Escape From the Grey

Ever-changing fragments of light through the tangled weave of crimson and red maple leaves. A pause in time where everything slows down, and the world outside melts away.

These abstract little paintings are rich with layered brushstrokes, scraped textures, and glimpses of teal and gold, with the palest green-grey sky teasing through foliage. 

They began with instinctive charcoal marks and a cascade of abstract splatters in acrylic paint, then built up and refined in oils.

These jewel-like little paintings are a mini-collection made within an over-arching body of work exploring the Japanese concept of 'Komorebi' (the feeling and atmosphere of light filtering through trees).

Also available to purchase together as a set.

Please contact me if you would like to purchase all 4 paintings together. They are available as a set for £1500, with complimentary delivery.
