For my entire life, I have tightly embraced the bends of the river. I grew up near the banks of the Darling at Broken Hill, and now years later, find myself beside the nurturing force of the Murray River, its wetlands and waterways.
When painting on the banks of the river or wetlands my observations become more abstract. I slow things down, to observe and capture this ephemeral beauty in our environment. To hear the river flowing by, the cockatoos calling, and the gum leaves flickering in the breeze creates a passage of time.
