'At Peace' - Charles Amos

Dimensions: 60 x 60 cm (23.6 x 23.6 in)

Medium: Oil on canvas

'At Peace' is a radiant and deeply expressive landscape that masterfully captures the luminous, open tranquility of rural South Africa. Measuring 60 cm (Height) x 60 cm (Width), this perfectly square oil on canvas is defined by its rich, saturated colour palette and tactile, impasto texture. Amos employs sweeping knife work and layered brushwork to create a composition brimming with warmth, light, and atmospheric depth.

The lower half of the canvas erupts in a fiery field of autumn-hued flora, transitioning from deep rust-reds and burnt sienna in the immediate foreground to bright golden yellows and fresh lime greens across the mid-ground plains. Anchor-like on the left horizon stands a solitary, majestic green tree, its dark trunk and lush canopy providing a grounding focal point against the vast expanse. Nestled quietly on the far right horizon is a charming, white-walled cottage with a bright red roof, surrounded by a grove of trees that adds a sense of quiet human presence and shelter.

Dominating the upper half of the canvas is a dramatic, dynamic sky. Heavy, textured layers of cerulean and cobalt blue are broken by a towering, brilliant white cloud formation built up with thick impasto paint that catches the light. The vivid contrast between the fiery earth and the deep, cloud-filled sky creates a captivating visual harmony. This piece stands as a compelling testament to Charles Amos's expressive style, making it a spectacular focal piece for any contemporary fine art collection.
