Primeval

As I drove towards Mparntwe and turned my head to check a corner in the road, I caught a quick glimpse of the MacDonnel Ranges in the distance, their shapes immediately reminiscent of the sails of the Opera House. Inspired by country in the NT, this abstract expressionist painting explores the rhythms and colours of the landscape, rich with hills and ridges, and vibrant earthy tones.
Painted on the sides so will not require framing
Finished with two coats of varnish for surface protection
Signed on the front with a certificate of authenticity
I do my best to photograph my artwork accurately, but due to differences in monitors and devices, colour and contrast may vary slightly

Doodie's artwork is a response to landscape in all its beautiful forms across the country, from green forests to red desert and the bush in between. She paints from memory and photos of her extensive travels.
Having grown up in WA, the red dirt of the Kimberleys and the Pilbara are ever present visual references, along with the plains of the wheat belt, the soaring jarrah forests of the south and the hectares of untouched bush around her home.
Nature has been a place of solace and connection since she was a child and she paints what she feels in its presence, often drawn to the rhythm of its forms.
Doodie loves to use found tools and a variety of colour palettes and styles so that each artwork reflects an authentic vision of a personal experience.
