Jamie Boyd is widely regarded as a formidable Australian landscape painter and a distinguished member of the Boyd artistic family. Like his father David and grandfather Arthur before him, Jamie Boyd has created a unique artistic voice that defies traditional art movements. Training formally under his father, Boyd has practiced and exhibited both throughout Australia and internationally.
Boyd’s landscape painting ‘Shoalhaven’ is a striking meditation on nature. Using broad brushstrokes and an earth-toned colour palette, Boyd straddles the line between impressionism and abstraction, with the rocks depicted starkly against the river and the treeline. In 1978, Boyd spent a year with his family in Shoalhaven, and it is this tranquil natural setting that he has routinely returned to throughout his career.
The inheritor of the Boyd artistic legacy, Jamie Boyd is well-represented throughout Australian galleries and internationally. For lovers of this prolific family and collectors of Australian landscapes, ‘Shoalhaven’ is a joyous find.
