Original Oil Painting by Robert Mee
Painted en plein air, ‘Light Over the Hayfields’ captures the fleeting warmth of a summer’s day in the French countryside through loose, expressive brushwork and vibrant colour. Golden ochres and warm orange tones sweep across the foreground, suggesting sun-warmed hayfields alive with light, while energetic, painterly marks lend the scene a sense of movement and immediacy.
At the edge of the field, a house sits quietly against the landscape, its form loosely defined and softened by the surrounding light. Behind it, deep greens and cool blues of trees and hedgerows create a layered backdrop, leading the eye further into the distance where a church rises gently through the treetops, more sensed than seen.
The sky shimmers with vibrant blues and soft lilac hues, enhancing the feeling of heat and stillness on a high summer’s day. With its emphasis on colour, light and visible brushwork, the painting favours atmosphere over detail, inviting the viewer to experience the scene as a moment caught in passing — fresh, painterly and full of summer warmth.
