Each year I create an abstract painting to challenge my creative skills. This year I was inspired by events throughout the world that to me suggested the whole world was at a Turning Point. Governments have failed their people in almost every country and there are major protests, including by new social media channels, whereby the people are speaking out. In USA there is major strife that shows this once great country is falling from greatness, Britain is leaving the European Union and there are rifts within and between European countries. In Australia it was bushfires and climate change driving a wedge through our governments ability to govern for all of the population. There are many more countries in turmoil and it doesn’t matter if they have democratic elected leaders or , dictatorships. I have tried to catch the mood of the world’s population and the hope of the new world order in this painting.
