PETER WILEMAN | Cobalt Drift
Oil on Panel
122 x 122 cms/ 48” x 48”
This original oil painting by Peter Wileman depicts an abstract seascape.
Wileman’s style is bold and vigorous, both in the use of colour and handling of paint, as he explores the effect of light on his subject. Working exclusively in oils, the medium most adaptable to changes of light and mood, he evokes atmosphere through light and colour through varying degrees of abstraction. Wileman’s work is reminiscent of the great master Joseph Mallord William Turner through its atmospheric quality. His work has a superb energy, with paint applied in washes and also with areas of impasto. The foregrounds are complex, but not disctracting to the subject within his work.
Known for his dazzling abstracted oil landscapes, Peter Wileman’s style is bold and vigorous, both in the use of colour and handling of paint, as he explores the effect of light on his subject. Seeking atmosphere through light and colour, he works in varying degrees of abstraction.
Wileman’s aim is to capture that elusive quality of light, that only a shimmering sunset, dawn of a new day, dazzling sparkle of reflection off both sea and river presents to one who is prepared to both look and see.
Over the last two decades Peter Wileman has exhibited regularly at a number of prestigious art venues including the Royal Society of Marine Artists, the New England Art Club and the Royal Institute of Oil Painters of which he is an associate member. He has worked in the field of art and design for over forty years.
