I have come to realise that the most abstract subject is reality itself. I mean, throughout nature there is so much in the way of patterns and imagery that make fascinating subjects for an artist to be inspired from.
This latest art project I have been doing is a set of three canvases that when put together, reveal a scene of swell lines approaching a shoreline and breaking in an almost perfect pattern on the beach. I have used only black, grey and white to emphasise the patterns created by the waves.

Wild Sunset - Wilson's Promontory
I recently got out of suburbia (finally) and made it to one of my favourite places in Victoria - Wilsons Promontory. I took the family on a few days vacation, staying in a cabin at Tidal River. What I love about Wilsons Prom is the rugged wilderness meeting beautiful pristine beaches and coastline. Here is the first painting I have done inspired by this trip. I went for an evening stroll with my 5 year old daughter along the beach and watched the sun go down. It was beautiful and a special time.
