ABOUT THE PAINTING:
Living on acreage in the beautiful Redlands, QLD, I am surrounded by several ghost gums. Once a year, they loose their bark to reveal a fresh new ghostly trunk covered in swirls left by insects. Our gums are home to some of the local Rosella population, who have made their home in a hole left by a fallen branch.
The artwork is full of golds, yellows, australian greens, teal, cobalt blue, several different reds and oranges, plus whites, silvers and black. I hope this soothing artwork will bring the Australian bush into its new owners home or office.
My artwork contains a lot of intricate details that give my paintings movement and can entice the viewer to look upon the painting and become mesmerised (that's what past collectors have said anyway 😃).
BTW: This artwork is a one-off original by me! It was created with love and lots of energy for the wonderful person who wants this vibrant artwork for a special room in their home or office.

ONE LAST THING:
The placement of the painting in the interior image may not be 100% to scale, but it does look amazing doesn’t it!
