Joan Blond - “Gruyere Hills”

Gruyère Hills is an evocative original artwork by Australian artist Joan Blond, capturing the rolling beauty of Gruyère — a beloved country town nestled in Victoria's Yarra Valley. Known for its breathtaking landscape of green hills, vineyards, and open skies, Gruyère has long been a source of inspiration for Joan bringing this spirit to life with quiet confidence.

Created in acrylic, gold leaf, and oil pastels, this piece layers rich texture and warm luminosity, the gold leaf catching the light in a way that feels almost alive. The result is a work that is at once serene and sumptuous — a fitting tribute to one of Victoria's most picturesque regions.
