Philip Wolfhagen
A Painter's Landscape X, 2016 (Archive Image)
Information

Philip Wolfhagen (b.1963, Launceston) is a leading Australian contemporary landscape painter who lives and works in Longford, Tasmania. He is inspired by the atmospheric landscape of northern Tasmania and the emotive qualities of light and weather. Wolfhagen’s paintings are unique in his use of beeswax mixed with oils. His work is physical, dense in its application, sombre in mood and tonality, the result of a deeply experienced, enduring engagement with an ancient, yet eternally living subject.
