Altus by Richard Burke captures a moment of elevation—both in atmosphere and perspective—where expansive sky and distant horizon meet in quiet balance. Towering clouds gather and shift, their forms edged with light, creating a sense of movement against the deep, steady blue below.
 
Burke’s brushwork brings energy to the sky while maintaining a sense of calm, allowing the viewer to settle into the scene. The contrast between the luminous upper atmosphere and the darker foreground creates depth and a subtle sense of distance, as if looking out from a higher vantage point.
 
Compact in scale yet expansive in feeling, Altus carries a quiet intensity—an intimate landscape that opens outward.
