Description:
These artworks were inspired by my family’s many road trips, watching the magnificent Australian bush and its extraordinary sunsets which almost appear to set the sky on fire. I love to use vibrant colour in more surreal ways to bring to life the emotions I feel in when viewing and then reinterpreting the landscape. The clear, graduated pink sky and the absence of activity in these works contribute to the sense of calm that settles upon a farm towards the end of another long and busy day.
Although ‘Distant Sun’ and ‘Evening Calm’ were painted as a pair (diptych), they hold their own unique presence and emotion, enabling them to be purchased and hung as stand-alone pieces of art.
