Notes:
Untitled - Fredericton
This substantial painting by Stephen Scott depicts the broad city landscape of Fredericton, NB. The composition is dominated by an expansive sky, rendered in soft blues and warm ochres. Scott employs expressive brushwork and a muted palette in the foreground, depicting a sparsely lit setting - a few streetlights are seen blinking into life - that suggests the encroachment of dusk. The contrast between the luminous sky and the dark earthy tones of the landscape establishes a compelling visual tension and deeply atmospheric mood.
