An original oil painting by Scarlett Raven.

Bursting with bright colour and incredible texture, this beautiful original artwork by Scarlett Raven not only showcases her own signature style but, also the art historical genre of impasto painting.

On creating her beautiful landscape artworks that have such fans as Orlando Bloom and Lord Jonathan Marland, Scarlet says:"The paint is thrown on, splattered and flicked. When it lands, it captures the flowers blowing in the wind. The movement must be in every layer, so when you step back you feel like the landscape is alive. It creates a whole world of magic." 

Scarlett's incredible process lends itself to impasto painting, invented in the 17th century by Baroque painters and later mastered by artists like Vincent Van Gogh.

Impasto is characterised by applying paint in thick layers so that it is elevated from the surface of the canvas. The result is powerful representations of texture and light which can be seen in such major historical artworks as Van Gogh's 'Starry Night' and Lucian Freud's 'Reflection (Self-Portrait)'. 

Mounted in a smart wooden frame, this incredible original artwork by Scarlett can be displayed in a range of spaces and will make a gorgeous centrepiece to any wall.
