Sundown Original Oil Painting on Glass

'Sundown' by Richard Rowan is one of the latest pieces from his collection. The beautiful reds depicting a sunset over still waters would make a tranquil and breathtaking view to any home.

Landscapes and skies are constantly changing, giving Richard Rowan a constant flow of inspiration which he enjoys exploring.

Richard sketches many scenes in the countryside which he records in a book, as well as taking digital images. His reference material contains anything from scenes of the Lake District to Hanoi. When back in the studio, Richard uses these images to transport himself back to these stunning locations and plan out a design of the picture to develop on glass.

Richard likes to challenge himself with difficult work, commenting that "painting oil on glass can make you want to tear your hair out", but is also satisfying at the same time. When he sits down to paint, he wants to paint better than the last time; pushing the boundaries of what he can do. Once he finishes a painting, he wants people to look at the piece, be drawn in and find themselves lost in his work.
