Photograph on paper

Signed on the front.

As a self-portrait artist I come alive when I’m in the bush. This image was taken in the early morning on the outskirts of Longreach, just as the sun peaked up over the horizon.

I remember the moment vividly, the earth beneath my feet was dewy between my toes, the breeze was cool, a welcome delight from the heat of the day before, I felt at home, connected and free, as I stood grounded, basking in the warm light caressing my skin.

Being here, on the land at this moment, was a moment in time I will not forget. I was seeing colours in the sky and a richness in the land, so painterly I could feel the earths life and spirit around me .

~with dewy toes i wander
toward the warmth of your glorious light.
you caress my skin so gently
tis in you i find delight.
still and looking inward, I reflect
whats's come and gone.
momentary bliss in the embrace of
golden morn.
