Fish and chips in Freo with van Gogh

An ode to Van Gogh. I can imagine him paining there, in a #Fremantle caffe. Painting away as the sun starts to fade ,capturing the moment we want to stop the approaching end of the day.

Fremantle foreshore is much loved for its spectacular sunsets. With tables bustling and people scattered everywhere , only to be lulled into a dreamlike state as soon as the sun goes down. As the sky colours over, the noise settles down, the trees seem taller and the crowds settle down, staring to nothing as the earth touches sky, not wanting the moment to pass you by.

There's something about the restrained excitement I experience when painting that keeps me coming back for more. To see a piece come together on canvas transcending from the here and now to the realms of forever .
Art tells stories, our stories. Where we've been, what we've seen, but most of all, it takes you into a moment, a feeling, a transcendence from my story to yours . I invite you through my art to step into a moment of time that reminds you of you.
I tell stories with a paintbrush, a feeling, a glimpse , a moment, now captured forever. Escape the harsh realities of our world and come meander with me to a quieter, more peaceful place.
I paint life as I experience it, always looking to escape ,even if its only for a moment. . I see the beauty of creation around me and want to stay there forever.
