'Contours of the Coast' is from the Sediments of Time series which expands the theme of my recent collections exploring Australia’s unique ecosystem, diverse topography, and colour. This series depicts the rich sandstone which adorns Australia's coastline, its undulating permutations, variation in colour and grain and the strata layers of natural sediment, nooks crannies and hidden gems deposited and buried long ago. This work depicts the varied formation with a hint of the ocean; think sheer cliffs, blocks carved for construction, seashore and ripples in the sand. The more you explore the more you see. Minimalist by design, this neutral painting will complement a natural Japandi style room, modern decor, a more traditional or rustic look on a white or coloured wall.

The spiral is a subtle symbol for evolution evoking an important conservation message and the need for us to nurture our planet for future generations to enjoy.

Approximately 15 layers of acrylic medium and paint are used to build the relief texture, colour overlay and detail. Accents of glass beads provide a hint of shimmer. Shapes and contours are carved into the medium, using mostly non-traditional objects. Canvas is stretched and ready to hang in either landscape or portrait. Frame is pre-strung for both landscape and protrait. Sides are clean, finished in beige, so it can be hung without a frame or add a frame of your choice. Signed on the side to give you flexibility of hanging and authored on the back.
