"Time well spent"

Paper Print Of original "Empasto" oil painting By Jesska Hannigan.

“Time Well Spent”  Original expressive Fine art print of the Australian bush from Adelaide artist Jesska Hannigan

Soft lilac and blush tones sweep across the trunk of a sunlit gum tree,

 Time Well Spent captures the stillness of a moment — where light filters through branches and the air hums with memory. Painted in the studio from plein air sketches and reflections gathered on a recent outback trip with her family in the Flinders ranges. This expressive landscape celebrates connection: to nature, to time, and to the simple act of being present.

With impasto brushwork and a gentle palette, the piece explores the emotional weight of slowing down and seeing beauty in the everyday. Every stroke is layered with warmth and contemplation — an homage to the hours spent observing, feeling, and translating the world back onto canvas. Original Painting was painted in oils on Canvas Capturing the essence of the Flinders ranges.

Painting – Description; Empasto is a painting technique where paint—typically oil or acrylic—is applied thickly onto the canvas or surface, so that brushstrokes or palette knife marks are visibly textured and three-dimensional. The word "empasto" comes from the Italian impastare, meaning "to paste" or "to knead," reflecting the sculptural quality of the medium when used in this way.
