Valley In the Morning Light

 
Valley In The Morning Light, original landscape painting by Peter Kettle inspired by Kamikochi in the Japanese Alps, Japan.
 

245 x 155 cm

oil and mixed media on canvas

custom designed oak frame

Valley In The Morning Light captures the cool early light of Kamikōchi in the Japanese Alps, where the mountain valley opens between forested slopes and distant peaks. Layered passages of oil paint, broken marks and shifting colour evoke the changing atmosphere of the landscape rather than describing it literally, recalling the experience of travelling on foot through the valley.
