Pat Chaffey showcases her expressive power here, transforming a simple scene into a work of complex colour and emotional depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe focus is on the massive, shadowy trunk of an ancient tree, rendered in thick, vigorous strokes that give it a commanding presence. Patches of \u003cb\u003evivid orange, pink, and gold\u003c\/b\u003e break through the darkness, suggesting a hidden light source or the last, brilliant rays of a setting sun. Below, the still water is a pool of deep shadow, perfectly mirroring the composition but adding its own layer of mystery with shimmering, broken reflections of the vibrant sky and foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis award-winning piece is a masterclass in contrasts: the heavy, earthy permanence of the tree against the fluid, ephemeral nature of the reflection. Chaffey’s highly textural use of \u003cb\u003epastel or oil medium\u003c\/b\u003e invites the viewer to feel the roughness of the bark and the cool depth of the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a truly \u003cb\u003eone-off original\u003c\/b\u003e from Pat Chaffey’s celebrated portfolio, \"Reflections\" is a powerful and emotive acquisition for any collector seeking depth, texture, and technical brilliance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pat Chaffey Art","offers":[{"title":"230 x 280","offer_id":40766045945920,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0593\/1112\/8640\/files\/reflections_1.png?v=1759652710","url":"https:\/\/patchaffeyart.com.au\/products\/reflections","provider":"Pat Chaffey Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
