Artwork Description

The steam-traction engine was "walked up" from Melbourne in 1875! The rest of the story of this marvellous relic, I'll leave to history buffs. I was simply captivated by the honesty of rusting metals, corrugated iron and beautiful timbers in this woolshed. Black midday shadows brought out sun worn colours on the machinery and fantastic blue-greens of the window reflections. I loved the patterns and textures in the iron walls , and the reds and yellows in the engine, weathering the midday glare... without being too careful of reality... sometimes the paint has its own mind!

Artist Bio

My first 20 years were spent in southern NSW on a farm on wonderful grey box country, then..
University at ANU surrounded by scribbly gums.
More recently south coast of NSW amongst beautiful spotted gum forests.
In between times I studied art at RCAE Wagga and TAFE Goulburn in the spare time I had running a business spanning 40 years.
Artist's trips to Alice Springs and beyond over the past decade have rekindled my interest in the textures and colours of Central Australia- ghost gum country...
There's a pattern here...
For the past 10 years I have been exhibiting and selling successfully in Sydney.
