Woodland Interior
This conversation is connected to Woodland Interior.
A tightly cropped, immersive view of a dense forest interior. The composition lacks a clear horizon line, focusing entirely on the overlapping textures of tree trunks and thick foliage. The paint is applied with loose, rapid brushstrokes in a narrow tonal range of deep greens, muted sage, and dark earth tones, with small, scattered touches of pale white and grey indicating light filtering through the canopy. While Davies is celebrated for his mythological scenes, his pure landscape studies reveal a strong structural focus. He flattens the spatial depth, creating a dense, tapestry-like surface that emphasizes the physical application of the paint.
