Artwork Description

During a recent stroll on the beach I was struck by the majesty of these rocks and the phrase 'rocks have memory' suddenly came to mind. While it is meant to refer to geological memory I wondered if it could also mean memory of human encounters stretching millions of years in the past. Imagine those silent sentinels bearing witness to secrets of men long gone. Of lovers, warriors and adventurers past, present and those in the making. If rocks could only talk, I'd be fascinated to know what stories they would tell..
This artwork is a part of a triptych which can be purchased on its own or paired with the others listed as well.

Artist Bio

I am a multidisciplinary artist living and working in Sydney, Australia. My work is inspired by nature and the happenings in the world around me. I am interested in capturing and conveying the movement of my subjects in a realistic style and also like expressing myself abstractly. I hold a Bachelor of Visual Arts and Design degree. I usually allow my subjects to dictate the media and while I enjoy creating in watercolor, oils, ceramics and print media, my favorite mode of expression is acrylic on canvas. I am sensitive to the social, political, cultural and environmental issues affecting the world in my time and it is often reflected in my work.
