Autumn Light Berowra Creek – 125x50cm

Chris Kenyon
Austrlian Artist

The best description of my work would be an impressionist landscape with a strong leaning towards abstraction.
Unlike most impressionists, I am more interested in structural details, not vistas. I enjoy investigating the ‘bones’ of nature: dissecting and extracting strong linear forms.
My home and studio are located in bushland on a river. The only access is by boat, over an ever-changing body of water. This close connection with nature has had a profound influence on my work. My painting is now taking on a more rhythmical and sinuous quality, culminating in a stronger, more abstract format, which is a reflection of experience.
