When I painted this painting I placed myself in this landscape, and smelled the freshness of the surrounding, the kindness of the people meeting on the way. A time to reflect on, a moment to ask: "How are you" and not rush, but were genuinely interested in the well being of your fellow man.

Remembering the early days before the air was polluted with industrial and aircraft noise? When people walked to the village rather than taking the car, when they would meet a neighbor on the way and made a chat? That is the time that the future generation will imagine as a fairy tale. Yet, it is only a generation ago.

The feeling of holding something in your hands that is hundred of years old, like the pewter and the ceramic Japanese vase, gives me a feeling of agelessness. It vibrates through my entire body and to spend weeks painting something like this climaxes to an explosion in my imagination.

A painting of this calibre is and always will be an eye catcher when people realise it has not been created with shortcuts and tricks, but genuinely by discipline and artistry without smoke and mirrors.

It is a work I cannot get away from as it is in my soul to paint what every eye can see without the help of any kind of trickery or

Painted in 2005 and several times perfected and varnished over the years. This very work has never been exhibited, although one similar depicting different objects was revealed in Jos’ 2018 exhibition.

The style and technique is considered ‘Classical European’ and first exposed to Australia by some well-known earlier artists like Hans Heysen, Arthur Streeton, & Besie Davidson.
