Continuing my current theme of Australia's natural resources I have entitled this painting, Emeralds. I have this vision in my mind of the elation a prospector must feel when, after spending hours hammering away at dirt and rock, suddenly, the colour appears. In a way I think it must be similar to the excitement I feel when I stand back and look at a finished painting and see the 'secrets' exposed.
There is so much joy in revealing hidden treasure.
