This painting is of a beautiful little lagoon in Arrawarra, on the midcoast of NSW. It is one of the most beautiful and peaceful places I have ever been. Â
I started painting this on the first day my son went to preschool. Sadly the next day I had a major accident and didn’t paint again for a long time. It took me over a year to finish this, possibly up to 100 hours and four surgeries later. Â
I call this painting “Finding Peace” because it was a very difficult year and a very difficult process: a true journey for me of finding peace.
