Inspired by the nostalgia of a childhood spent playing in solitude on my family's farm in Wheatbelt Western Australia, this painting embraces a sense of innocence and imagination that is all too easily lost as we grow up.

This painting was built up layer by layer in oils, working from a monochromatic under-painting through to delicately applied layers of colour and fine detail. This piece has been a labour of love, and brings a sense of tranquility now that I can sit and enjoy it, reminiscing about days gone by and the freedom of running around barefoot, playing make-believe in the creeks and paddocks of my childhood home.

Framed in a minimal and neutral raw Tasmanian Oak float frame which complements the flesh tones of the subject, the canvas is equipped with a wire and ready to hang.

This piece is currently being exhibited in my debut solo exhibition 'Quietude' at NEXIS (Narrogin Exhibition Space) and will become available for purchase at the end of May if not sold prior. Please contact me if you would like to purchase the piece prior to the 26th of May.
