The face of Marilyn Munroe is instantly recognisable. Here, Marilyn is placed in a nest of diamonds which alludes to one of the famous movies in which she starred: “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” in 1953. In the film, Marilyn sings “Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend” and gives off the aura of a woman who relishes the glittering light and expensive taste of diamonds. Behind Marilyn is a tulip from a 17th century Dutch painting. At this time in the Netherlands, the Semper Augustus tulip with its striations of colour was given the value equal to ten times the annual income of a man. 1634 to 1637 was the first recorded economic speculative bubble, and when that bubble burst, many people were left in dire financial straits.
This artwork raises the question of the cost of being famous in Hollywood in the 1950’s, exemplified by the tragic life and death of Marilyn Munroe. It also brings to mind the mining of diamonds and how often those that work in the diamond mines in parts of Africa are mistreated and provide basically slave labour. And finally, the folly of attributing an inflated economic value to a tulip, which, when it was later deemed to be “just a flower”, many lives were so adversely affected. Well may we ask “Is it worth it”?

Is it worth it?

This vibrant painting captures the stunning view of a sunset over the Bolte Bridge in Melbourne. The sky is ablaze with fiery reds, oranges, and purples, reflecting beautifully on the water below. The dark silhouette of the bridge stands in stark contrast to the colorful sky and water, creating a striking and dramatic scene. The reflections and colors blend seamlessly, conveying the beauty of a summer evening in Melbourne.

This piece features a gradient of colors from deep blue at the top to warm oranges and greens at the bottom. An abstract forest with intricate textures and patterns creates depth and movement. At the base, two silhouettes sit on a bench, adding a touch of intimacy amidst the vibrant setting.

A whale's tail just before it disappears under the water has always been an image of freedom. It is a final wave goodbye before they descend under the water. I have just indicated the whale's body underneath the water. The ocean is painted in a wide variety of blues with paler blues about for the sky. The ocean is very calm with some ripples that the whale has caused by its movement.
