Ayers Rock /Uluru (One And The Same To Me And You)

There are so many painted and photographic images of this amazing rock that I decided to challenge myself by creating my version! I actually did the climb (only as far as chicken rock I’m afraid) many years ago when the public was permitted to do so. I also did the motor bike ride around the base of the rock but unfortunately didn’t take too many photographs so this is my personal interpretation of what I can recall!

Uluru is also known as Ayers Rock, it was named by William Gosse in 1873 after Sir Henry Ayers, however Uluru is the Aboriginal and official name. It is a massive sandstone monolith in the heart of the Northern Territory’s arid "Red Centre". It originally sat at the bottom of a sea, but today stands 348m above ground. One of the most startling Uluru facts however, is that some 2.5kms of its bulk is underground.

Uluru is sacred to indigenous Australians and is thought to have started forming around 550 million years ago.

Hi I'm Lisa, an Australian artist residing in rural NSW. I paint in her studio almost every day and enjoy producing artworks in a variety of styles and genres. I thrive on variety, challenge and a passion for colour, vibrant or subdued, as is evident in my work.

My style is thematically and stylistically diverse, deliberate and intended. It doesn't fit happily under a single descriptor as it encompasses impressionism, whimsical, surreal and the absurd. As an artist my greatest challenge is to produce paintings that transfer my abstract ideas and mental visions to tangible images on canvas.

I create my images from ideas and inspirations derived from eclectic sources such as common phrases, play on words, juxta-positioning objects with objects and animals with objects, homonyms, colour journeys and from nature itself. I pay particular attention to placement, exploration into colour and composition in each artwork. Various techniques such as pointillism, sponging, impasto work and more traditional brushwork is used and I am never afraid to try new methods to produce each piece.

I am an intuitive artist who remains seriously committed to my art and I intend to continue exploring ideas, processes and techniques for many years to come!

I hope that my artworks evoke emotion and allow you to feel and see something special. Please follow me on this wonderful creative journey and feel free to message me via the inbox if you have any queries on any of my artworks.

Thank you so much for supporting Australian Artists and for taking the time to view my artwork it means sop much to me!
