The weeping tree Ed. 2 of 5

Every painting tells a story. The story of my son's loss and grief is told through this evocative image which i painted to also represent the grief felt by all the fathers who have lost access or contact with their children. Each leaf represents a tear shed. The light is for hope that they will be reunited.

I am a silk painter and watercolour artist and in my work I seek to capture the beauty of our environment and the wildlife and plant life, in particular where that species is becoming rare or endangered. My silk paintings are very unique and come pinned on white foam board which showcases the vibrancy of the inks and makes them easy to transport. In contrast, my watercolours use subtle colours and light to give a mystical quality to my work. More recently i have made the transition to oils and am enjoying the depth and detail this brings to my work.
I feel fortunate to live and paint in the beautiful South West of Western Australia.
