This treescape was inspired by travels in the Grampians National Park near Dunkeld, Victoria. The watercolour painting features a group of trees and undergrowth in shades of green and blue against the more purple backdrop of the mountain. I've worked with layers of watercolours, by letting the blue and purple background layer show, I've painted over this work with shades of green to create a sense of depth.

Artist Bio
I am a Melbourne-based artist, originally from the South-West of WA. I work primarily with watercolour on paper, creating paintings as well as small sculptures and installations.
My practice draws deeply from the textures, rhythms, and intricacies of the natural world and I like to focus in on details, while also capturing vast, expansive landscapes and the shifting perspectives between them. My works often draw from my surrounding environment or memories of specific places and I like creating work that capture moments of stillness and calm.
I graduated from UWA with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2007 and my work has been exhibited across Australia, including in the National Works on Paper exhibition, the York Botanic Art Prize, the Black Swan Prize for Heritage, and the Heysen Prize for Landscape. In May-June 2017, I was an artist-in-residence at Studio Kura, Japan.
