Artwork Description

The impressive dolomite structure of Corroboree Rock Conservation Reserve is of great importance to the local Arrernte Aboriginal people. Formed more than 800 million years ago by salt lakes, it is a sacred men's site that plays a significant role in culture today. Corroboree Rock is an easy stopover on your way to other East MacDonnell landmarks such as Trephina Gorge Nature Park and Arltunga Historical Reserve. This is the second painting I have done of this rock.

Artist Bio

I’ve loved painting since an early age but my passion really started when I moved to Broken Hill. Travelling the far west of NSW as a district relief teacher and seeing the landscapes inspired me. I was fortunate enough to meet Eric Minchin one of the “Brushmen of the Bush” who taught me the basics of oil painting. I still travel to the outback mainly around the far west of NSW and the Broken Hill area. Occasionally with my daughter‚ Sarah‚ who is a photographer (http://frankly-photography.com/) who captures those iconic outback scenes which I never tire of painting. Since moving back to the mid north coast of NSW I have started painting some scenes in my local area which I also find enjoyable to paint.
