Joan Blond: Endless Horizons & Timeless Landscapes

"My Australian Outback series is a tribute to the rugged beauty and serene vastness of our iconic landscape. Softly spoken in neutral tones, these paintings invite the viewer to immerse themselves in the endless horizons, weathered earth and resilient spirit of the Outback. Each piece is a nuanced exploration of the emotional connection we share with this land, distilling the essence of a place where the boundaries between earth, sky and soul are effortlessly blurred, created in my recognisable style". – Joan Blond, 2025
