Monolith 1 Ed. 1 of 11

A page from my sketchbook — this study is part of a series in the early stages of unfolding in my studio.

The many variations of Xanthorrhoea is an enduring motif in my current mind and artwork. Having been fortunate enough to see many of the 30 species around Australia in the company of Original Owners, something was imparted on me and that I am yet to understand but will be uncovered in time.

This study is a limited edition print. Original not for sale.
