A LAND OF PROFOUND
SILENCE, GREAT LIGHT AND MAGNIFICENT COLOUR.
The inspiration for
my current work flows directly from the impressions gained whilst painting and
travelling in Australia, most recently to Fraser Island near the Queensland coast,
where the air is clear and the sky and the sea shine. A stark contrast to my previous visits to Central and Northern Australia,
Uluru and the East Kimberley, where one can
experience a land of profound silence, great light and magnificent colour.
Water holds
a special fascination for me, on the coast, in billabongs, in the gorges of Central
Australia and of course on Sydney Harbour. Light and water create images of beauty and energy.
