Description

Fun, busy, pre-occupied, in a hurry, late, this painting is about the people in Melbourne today. Based around Flinders Street station, I sketched people going about their business and then my daughter photo-bombed a sketch and I just had to include her. I am very influenced by the work of Melbourne artist Wendy Sharpe and her depiction of people, colour and movement. I am also influenced by the work and observational work of David Hockney. This panting is another in a series of work about the people we live with today.
