The Trees of the Field Limited Edition Print

Acrylic Painting, Limited Edition Print, Mixed Media, Realistic

I am obsessed with Aussie trees. I love to study them; their beautiful shapes and colours are so unique and stunning. I have realised that each one has its own unique beauty, just like people. They come in all sorts of shapes, sizes and colours, each varying so much from the next. Why do we see differences in people as a bad thing, when the differences in the trees make our lives so much richer and more beautiful.
I love the trees and the lessons to be learnt from them when I take the time to look.

This is a mixed media piece, with the background having prints of local leaves and grasses.

Giclee print is on 100% cotton rag 310gsm, archival. 
70 x 53cm image (80 x 63cm with 5cm white border) 
Variable size is available on request. 
Due to prints relying on specialist printing services, orders maybe delayed. 
Signed and numbered on the front of the print.

This is a limited Edition Print, which will require framing.

Berowra Creek

Acrylic Painting, Originals For Sale, Realistic

The lockdowns caused by COVID caused so many problems, but also gave us many gifts. One of the gifts it gave us was time. Suddenly we had time; time to spend with family, time to explore our local area in a way we haven’t before. What a gift. 
I will remember this spot well, not only for the beauty and the peace, but also for the joy it brought us. My sons are adventurous and love to scramble and climb over all the rocks, no matter how slippery…well you can guess what happened this one time. A very soggy boy for the last hour of the hike, but what a place to fall in.

Benowie Track

Acrylic Painting, Originals For Sale, Realistic

That’s what my youngest kept asking about this beautiful walk on the Benowie Track. He loved climbing over all the undulating rocks and the beautiful fresh clear water (which he sampled). I was absolutely fascinated by this tree that was thriving despite its circumstances and position (a good reminder 🙂). 
This walk was much longer than we expected 😫 but one of the most beautiful we have been on.

Too Much

Abstract, Acrylic Painting, Floral, Sold

Too Much (Lego figures included)?I know I can be too much.Sometimes I feel too much, cry too much, think too much, worry too much, talk too much, hurt too much.I know this painting is too much, but do you know what…it was really fun to paint, to play, to include Lego figures, to cause it to be too much.Sometimes I don’t like being me, because of my “too much”.But God has made me an open book for a reason 😉I also care too much and love to much, so it ain’t all bad.

This artwork is framed (lovingly made by me) in a painted white Tasmanian oak floating frame.

I Don’t Care

Abstract, Acrylic Painting, Floral, Sold, Splatter

This is a part of my splatter paint series. 
Painting these is pure joy: I literally throw paint on the canvas and then paint what the painting shows me.

As an artist I long to please, to have others like what I do, to value it, to be accepted; but this isn’t always good for the soul. Sometimes we must create with no one else in mind, but to paint what is in our soul, without caring if it is liked, valued or accepted. To be purely free to be me…letting go of the expectations of others is good for the soul.

I Don’t Care: because I care too much.

Since finishing this painting I have added to it. I was watching a cockatoo, while on my morning walk and was struck by their audacity. They have this amazing care free attitude that I thought perhaps I could learn from. This one on this particular day, it was covered in mud, and it was having a feed on the nature strip and totally living its best life. It didn’t care less about me, I walked quite close to it and it just one about its breakfast, keeping a vague eye on me, but really not to bothered by my interest in it, definitely not bothered by it being covered in mud. Maybe I could learn something from the audacious cockies.

Lyrebird Gully

Acrylic Painting, Realistic, Sold

There have been some benefits to lockdown; one of them being more time to spend with the family on mini adventures.  
This adventure was on the Benowie track, which is a part of the great north walk. 
Let’s just say it was more of an adventure than we bargained for, but over the four hours we took walking, exploring and wandering, we were so often caught up in the specular beauty of the place. We were all drawn to the mossy rocks and the water of Lyrebird gully, where the kids took off our shoes and enjoyed the freezing water. I loved sitting there watching the kids, feeling still, when so often life is not. 
What a privilege, amongst the difficulties, to have this time to share with family.
