Artwork Description

Original artwork by award winning and internationally exhibited artist Michael Wolfe.

I’ve been working on a series of paintings based on the gullies and hills of Bendigo on Djaara Country exploring the effects of light on the landscape across the day. Being a spontaneous and intuitive painter usually means I do the figuring out in the early stages of painting then kind of let it rip with the gesture and vigorous mark making. Not rocket surgery yet it does require of you to be completely absorbed in the moment and get a bit jazzed in your improvising.
