One of my favourite places to walk is in the Mount Coot-Tha National Park quite near my home. On a very early Winter morning the dry grasses blowing in the wind catch the light.

The ridges fall away at different angles, and I find that the long shadows in the early morning or late afternoon show the undulations and angles in such an interesting way. Painted round the Edges and framed in black matt floater frame this painting is ready to hang.

The time of day is suggested by the strong complementary colour scheme.

I’ve been an artist for more than 25 years and in that time my interests have  remained around the things I see here in Australia mostly landscape. I’ve exhibited in galleries and events on east coast on Australia during that time and concentrated my efforts on Australian scenes and Birds with Movement and Light painted in my own style of "expressive impressionism”or "Post Impressionism".

I used transparent watercolour to begin with and took the things I learned from experimenting with water-based mediums on paper to acrylic medium on Stretched canvas and linen. It’s a process of using multiple transparent layers of paint and dry medium fixed with acrylic painting medium. Because it takes some time for the layers to dry between coats I work in series of several similarly themed paintings over a mater of weeks. This allows me to incorporate random water and brushwork effects into the representational forms I create.

It’s really difficult to establish the credibility in representation when you work as quickly as I have to using these techniques I have developed over more than twenty five years of my art practice.
