Artwork Description

This is definitely a one-off. I found this original 2013 architectural layout of Barangaroo at Reverse Garbage. As it's now part of Sydney's history, I felt it needed saving. If I'd had a reference image of Barangaroo herself, I would have painted her. As that wasn't an option, I let the board itself guide me. 'Constraints and Views' references the sightlines and discussions, but I've tried to honour the original drawing by constraining her dress lines to the existing lines. Hence, it's still a recognizable area. Board has original architect date. As this is a 5 year old piece of history, it may show signs of its use during its lifetime. This piece is framed with 45% non reflective glass and ready to hang.

Artist Statement
After painting as a full time artist for the past 15 years, I've decided to just leave some previous works available here as prints only. No originals. It is unfortunately no longer financially viable to try and sell original work on this site when my returns after two recent increases in commission from BT, increases in shipping, material costs etc mean my actual proceeds from a sale are quite small. Thanks to my collectors and followers these past years. I wish you all the very best.
