Artwork Description

“Blue Door Café” captures the relaxed charm of tropical North Queensland — a quiet corner filled with lush greenery, patterned shadows, warm afternoons and the comfort of familiar routines. The turquoise doorway, scattered café table setting and local cat evoke a sense of home, where time slows and simple pleasures are enough. Rich in colour and gentle nostalgia, the painting invites viewers into an imagined tropical retreat that feels both peaceful and lived in.

Artist Bio

My love of the tropics was instant after arriving in Far North Queensland in the late 1970's as an 18 year old, after a childhood spent in busy Sydney. I pedalled my pushbike up the east coast and came across Mission Beach after working on the banana farms in Tully. I was spellbound by the wonderland of plants, animals, fish, ocean, cassowaries and birds of this tropical paradise . I hoped that one day this could be home….It was. Moving here permanently in 1995.
My paintings come from my love of this place that has always held my heart, often depicting a little nostalgia of the good old days when sugarcane burnt in the season and a pub stood on every corner in town.
I hope you enjoy my collection of original paintings inspired by my beautiful surroundings at my studio in Mission Beach Nth Qld.
