Ghost Gums, Nocturne

Ghost gums haunt the bushland, lit by an unseen moon.
• Inspired by some watercolour experiments, pushing ordinary forest scenes into extraordinary abstracts. This concept captured my imagination, so I wanted to build it up into a larger acrylic.
• In places dark and jewel-like, in others bright and haunting, this painting evokes a sense of mysterious depth.
• Acrylic on 300gsm 100% cotton Italian watercolour paper, finished with an isolation coat and gloss varnish.
• Provided unframed so you can have it presented to your taste. If mounted on board could be presented without glass, but would also look great under glass with a white mount as shown in the mock ups.
• Paper 37x47cm. Image 35x45cm.

• Our world’s shapes, colours and textures have a deep personal resonance and I aim to share that sense of wonder. I’ll always keep experimenting, learning, and making sense of the world through my personal art, and I’m excited to showcase and offer some of the pieces here in the hope you’ll enjoy them too.

• I work predominantly in acrylic and sympathetic water media. My acrylic works on watercolour paper mounted to my own handcrafted braced panels do not need to be mounted under glass, and can be cared for like any other varnished acrylic painting. All my works are completed with artist quality archival materials and media, and crafted with care and attention to longevity.
