Notes
Boundless is an abstract seascape by the London based artist, Jonathan Speed. The work was inspired by a sunset on the west coast of Crete. Built up from a palette of warm and soft shades of blue and peach, the painting perfectly captures the dramatically charged skies and the peaceful, reflective waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
As seen with both of his works in the auction, the artist is passionate about the beauty of nature and constantly seeks to produce peaceful and inspiring paintings that convey the atmosphere and energy of each scene within our ever-changing environment.
Inspired by the great painters, Turner, Whistler and Courbet, Jonathan works predominantly with oils using a refined technique of application, combining subtle tonal blending with expressionistic bursts of colour and texture to emulate their use of light and atmospheric qualities.
