Optimism is the constant companion of farmers. The beauty of the Salvation Jane and Canola fields and the bright purple and yellow expanse fills me with optimism and happiness. North of Goyder's Line, annual rainfall is too low to support cropping, with land being only suitable for grazing. This painting inspired by Salvation Jane and Canola fields in the Barossa Valley, SA, reflects the realities and spirit of farming in Australia as well as the beauty of the natural landscape.
The painting is full of texture and energy and will provide a bright and colourful addition to a home or commercial space. A statement piece to immerse yourself in and make you smile.
