Gum Nut Delight is a celebration of my deep love for Australia's native flora, especially the iconic gum trees. This piece captures the moment when a slice of perfection is brought inside and sunlight dances across the gum nuts, casting soft, golden hues and creating an overwhelming sense of calm and happiness. The warmth of the light seems to breathe life into the scene, evoking the fresh, earthy scents of the Australian bush.
Created with Windsor & Newton Professional watercolour paints, the translucent nature of watercolour lends it self to capturing the way the light plays with the gum nuts. Paper measures 19cm x 28cm. Actual painted image measures 15cm x 24cm

Artist Bio
As a day dreamer, a lover of nature and a sentimental soul it is not surprising that Natalie picked up pencils and brushes from a young age to explore and document the world around her. Growing up living and exploring the bushland and coastal areas of southern Sydney, the Illawarra and the South Coast of NSW has created countless opportunities to draw and paint. Art is a meditative process to me. A chance to stop and really explore the beauty in the world around me. My first love was pencil. I would document things I love in a visual diary. I then discovered watercolour and have been slowly honing my skills over the past 15 years. I love watercolour for the whimsical and ephemeral quality it gives to my work whilst also allowing me to capture the fine details where needed.
