Ancient Ochre

The painting “ancient ochre” draws its inspiration from the breathtaking rock formations lining the King George's River in Western Australia's Kimberley region. The artwork captures the vibrant layered cliffs that are a defining feature of this part of the Kimberley. The rush, rusty tones of the stone speak to the ancient geological history of the land, carved over Millenia by water and wind. From this vantage point the river's calm, cool surface, reflects the powerful essence of the Kimberley's remote and pristine wilderness.
