I am an X Stockman Come Artist. I am a registered artist. and all my works come with a registered number for life. I am self-taught I do it for the love of art, My work has been published in the Australian art magazine. I have sold many works all over the world. As an award-winning artist. my work is held in private collections in Australia, Singapore, Germany & France, Hong Kong, U.S.A, U.K., and have done many commissions for art collectors. I received an art award sponsored by Adelaide University, I have won many awards and had many shows and sold all 25 works at one show in Port Adelaide. I have my own studio that I work in a little town called Two Wells in South Australia. I love painting landscapes, and Abstract to give me a change in the art world. I paint in oils, I love using a combination of thick paint, and I love using the palette knife with oil paints. I am inspired by nature and the great colours of this great landscape we call Australia, I have found over the many years I have been painting the beauty in everything, from the many colours of bark on trees to rust on old machines and deserts to the sky. your eye sees many things as an artist. as I like to express my feelings and emotions in another style. and to create something that is a little bit different from a modern outlook. my art is straight from the heart, of many years working in the outback and seeing and feeling the beauty that I loved and still love. I have slowed down these days after having strokes. and an operation for them. move a bit slower these days, lucky my studio is on my property. well that is life. hope you like my work. cheers O.J.
