Greener Pastures (The Hooved Houdini) - Framed (M)

I like the stories that come from the rural parts of Australia they are often overlooked because they are isolated places, brutal places, they aren't in the forefront of the mind of people in the city.
That is what I’ve tried to capture here in a small way, a farm story, a story I was told about “that one bloody sheep that kept getting out of the paddock....but how the b*stard got across the river i'll never know”. It's little stories like this that add to the rich character of this country, some of the stories are funny some are not, but we need them, thye are what makes this country so beautiful.

I find that my art enables me to express elements of my world that can't necessarily be seen by the naked eye, its an attempt at conveying something a bit intangible. Abstraction is the primary way I communicate my ideas and experiences in art.
The naive and somewhat primitive lines, shapes, colours and textures I use are my attempt at capturing the atmosphere, personality or feeling of a place or person I have encountered in my life, realism or a photograph in my opinion doesn't always capture these elements of the world.
I feel that my art brings these to the surface...it shows the soul of something, somewhere, or someone. Perhaps you will see someone you know within my strange works, maybe even yourself.
