Studio Sale | Jonathan Speed

'Calm Seas' was inspired by a late summer sunset over the Aegean Sea. Built up from a palette of warm and soft shades of blue and yellow, this painting features a fading sunset with atmospheric skies and calm, reflective waters.

Jonathan seeks to produce peaceful and captivating paintings that channel the atmosphere and energy in each scene. He works predominantly with oils using a refined technique that combines subtle tonal blending with expressionistic bursts of colour and texture to emulate the ethereal qualities of light.
