About the artwork
A small oil sketch, evoking a hot day. There is a kind of certainty in the sky, with powerful and well-formed ‘cumulus-congestus’ clouds. These are contrasted with a mirage-like view of the landscape below........................................(Surface: the side-view photograph of the work has been taken deliberately to show the surface sheen, as well as the edge thickness of the work. I mostly prefer a high gloss protective finish, but any of my works can be re-varnished for a softer sheen. Framing: this picture is on canvas board 1/8th inch (3mm) thick. It can be framed by request: please contact me for price and delivery time.)

John Ronayne ARCA
At a very early age, my father took me along to the National Gallery, where I became excited by the handling of landscape and light effects by masters such as Claude, Ruisdael and Turner. At school, the Art Room was my sanctuary; I was in there whenever possible. After schooldays, my undergraduate course was at Norwich School of Art. I was inspired by the big skies of Norfolk, and also the School's position, overlooking the river Wensum with its misty, almost Dutch, atmosphere. From there I won a 3-year postgraduate place at the Royal College of Art, based, most fortunately, next door to the V&A: inspiration was close at hand in the collection of theatre design models with their painted illusions of Nature, and the galleries particu...
