This is a beach scene taken on the North Coast of New South Wales, just north of Byron Bay, in a little town called Pottsville. There's a sense of the slowness of life here, of the importance of other stuff than making money, a feeling that fishing and surfing and hanging out are the things that matter.
I glue canvas onto mdf board using ph neutral glue . as I like a more rigid surface to work on as I like to use thin layers of paint scrubbed onto the surface.
