Between a Rock and a Hard Place

The quintessential Australian outback, depicting the dry, red earth, olive green eucalyptus and blue sky of the MacDonnell Ranges in the Northern Territory of Australia. Acknowledgement to the photographer of this scene, the late Frank McDonald of Townsville. The brilliant colours of the earth give vibrancy and a colour hit to an ordinary room.

I started oil painting when I retired as an infectious disease pathology scientist in December 2019. I especially like to paint landscapes and still life's. I am largely self taught. I find myself painting, making panels and frames most days of the week. I love what I do; it is challenging but rewarding . I have been a finalist in The Doyles Art Awards in 2022, 2024 and 2025.
