C hris Mcloughlin’s contemporary landscapes capture the conscious experience and awareness of a place. Working from observation and inspired by his senses and emotions, he pushes the boundaries of representational painting towards a more phenomenological approach.
This experience of the landscape is translated onto canvas through bold expressive brushwork and an intuitive relationship with colour. The subjects are invariably places that he knows well or visits often and include high mountain top fells and sweeping valley corridors; often working at sunrise and sunset throughout the seasons, chasing the light.
