Coolangatta Cruiser

I coveted this cruiser at Coolangatta on the Gold Coast, where I holiday every year. I hoped if I rode it I too could magically become the tanned surfie chick that probably owns it.

This urban themed work contains fragments from old art books and music posters scavenged from city streets and cafes. Bright, happy, holiday colours, this painting will lift any room.

The original artwork, created on wooden panels, is also for sale.
