Sunset Returns is an original oil painting by Kristine Ballard inspired by the radiant hues of Sydney harbour and the heartbeat of a city. A contemporary and vibrant landscape. A unique statement piece harnessing Ballard’s distinctive ‘Fragmatism’ style in sumptuous jewel tones.
ARTWORK STATEMENT
I have always been captivated by our human connection to water.We cling to the coastal edges just so we can be near it. We look into and out over it. It is always on the move, but it can calm us too. It is alive with possibility.
The city of Sydney’s heart lies in the magical waters of its harbour. How do you capture the colour of magic? Water has no colour. It is a mirror to its surroundings.
This magic is what fuels my waterscape paintings. Layers of colour reveal rich beauties. When the sun sets, Sydney takes on a cocktail of colours. You can feel the pulse of the city as she shifts from day to night. You are reminded that deep in the waters of her harbour, is where her magic hides, and you can’t help but be charmed every time the sunset returns.
