Artwork Description

Kwartatuma - Ormiston Gorge 2 by Michael Wolfe - 152x122cm framed in a thin line Mountain Ash frame in a natural Danish Oil finish.

“The Larapinta Trail on Arrente Country winds its way through the West MacDonnell Ranges from Alice Springs to Mount Sonder. The country is spectacular, sparse, harsh, rugged and everything seems to be in high key colours and sharp contrast. The sky is bluer, the shadows deeper, the sun more dazzling."

This beautiful contemporary abstract painting draws inspiration from the landscape along the Larapinta Trail in the West MacDonnell Ranges NT.
