LOOKING LEFT

Far from the city where the air is pure and nature reigns the country beaches in Australia are a sight to behold. They are surrounded by native grasses in the softest of grey greens and coastlines of cliffs. Pale aqua waters and bleached pink sand link one beach to another. This painting has an Italian Limewash Frame and is signed both front and back.

Hi there, I am a Sydney based artist I work with 3 mediums acrylic, watercolour and chinese brush painting. After initially studying art at school I then went on to perfect the disciplined art of chinese brush painting over and beyond some 30 years. I felt a great need to break free of those restraints so 20 years ago I added acrylic to my repertoire. My practice consists of fine sketches, followed by little watercolours which then lead onto actual paintings. Having performed this exacting ritual time and time again I'm more than ready to just have fun with the painting itself basically from the imprint of all that has gone before. I mainly paint landscapes but more than willing to basically try anything especially connected to nature. I have been a consistent finalist in Mosman and Waverley Art Prizes, won 5 1st prizes along with highly commendeds and commendeds and more recently won a finalist spot to exhibit at Spectrum Miami Art Fair and have just been awarded Honourable Mention in international CFA Artist of the Year Award.
