Nigel Hewitt’s new series of landscape paintings captures the dynamic interplay of light and shadow in an ever-changing environment. Painted on-site and from memory at Signal Hill in Tasmania, these small-scale works reflect the artist’s deep connection to his surroundings, the shifting natural conditions, and the profound impact of human presence on nature.
