"In the Outback" is a powerful and definitive original painting that captures the raw, enduring beauty of Australia's interior. Pat Chaffey focuses on the striking contrasts of the arid landscape, translating its harsh light and deep colour into a mesmerising work of art.
The scene is anchored by a magnificent, pale-barked gum tree in the foreground, its form brilliantly illuminated by intense sunlight. Beyond its protective shade, the land explodes in colour: a steep ridge of intense rusty-red rock dominates the mid-ground, rising to meet the deep, moody purples of the distant outback mountain range.
Chaffey’s technique, likely utilising the rich, textured layering of pastel or oil media, is perfectly suited to the subject. The visible, confident strokes convey the heat, the dry scrub, and the ancient geology of the land. This award-winning piece is a vivid celebration of the Outback's untamed spirit and its profound visual drama.
As a truly one-off original from Pat Chaffey’s acclaimed portfolio, this painting is an essential acquisition for the collector seeking an authentic and high-impact depiction of the Australian heartland.
