Abstract, mixed media landscape painting by Carolyn J Roberts
Where light catches the land and lifts it into view.
An expressive small work inspired by the Isle of Skye, where shifting light transforms the landscape in an instant — illuminating ridgelines, softening shadow, and revealing the contours of the land beneath a vast, open sky. Light on the Ridge captures that fleeting moment when brightness breaks through cloud, drawing the eye across the higher ground.
Created through oil paint monoprint and collage, the surface holds a layered, tactile quality that echoes both the solidity of the land and the movement of light across it. Subtle tonal contrasts suggest the rise and fall of distant ridges, while lighter passages emerge gently, as though touched by passing sunlight.
There is a sense of quiet illumination within the piece — a moment where the landscape is briefly held in clarity before shifting once more. It reflects that familiar experience on Skye, where light travels quickly, revealing and concealing in equal measure.
