Skyrings

An oldie but a goodie….this work was inspired by an image I saw in an edition of Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet. A housemate of mine at the time had an enlarged photocopy of it on the wall and inverted it so , to me it appeared the hand involved was touching the sky. I added the idea of the hand doing some rings in the sky, emerging from the water. Slightly surreal, perhaps. Will need to be framed, best behind glass with a window mount. Will enliven any room and add a quirky touch.

Since studying visual art for the HSC in 1990 and being selected for the touring Artexpress exhibition, I have been making and exhibiting my art. I attended Meadowbank TAFE in Sydney in the mid 1990s where I was awarded a Diploma of Arts in Fine Arts. I have explored media such as textiles, photography, sculpture, printmaking and mosaics, but primarily paint in oils and draw in chalk pastels currently. My work is quite eclectic, with diverse subject matter and styles as I feel more challenged as an artist by changing styles from time to time and engaging with new ones. My most recent artistic obsession has been with abstracted landscapes, imagined, but based on my experiences of nature, especially in the Blue Mountains where I live.

NB. At times I have noticed terms such as “indigenous art” or “indigenous paintings” or similar, appear at the bottom of my individual artwork pages under “related tags”. I want to make it clear that I am not a First Nations artist, if anyone finds it misleading or confusing when viewing these tags. I was not responsible for including them, I think they may be AI generated. Just wanted to mention to avoid misleading anyone for whom purchasing an authentic indigenous artwork is important.
