Simply Complicated: Discoveries While Walking

Acrylic Painting, Floral, Impressionism, Originals For Sale, Realistic

Simply Complicated

Life seems so simple

Yet the juggle is so complicated

But what matters is so simple?

I was painting this while juggling all that life’s throws at me and was struck by art imitating life. I thought when I started this painting, at first glance it was much simpler than my usual flower and yet the more I painted the more complexity I discovered!! What beauty in the simplest things we find.

How amazing is this little discovery? But the more you look at it the more you discover it’s extraordinary complexity.

Discoveries While Walking: Crabapple

Acrylic Painting, Floral, Impressionism, Originals For Sale, Realistic

On the way up the hill, the council planted the most beautiful crabapple trees. When they loose their leaves, they aren’t much to look at, but in spring, there is nothing like them, they are absolutely packed with the most stunning flowers. The colour is so vibrant that no matter what I do, I cant seem to match the intensity of the pink! What a wonder the crabapple is, and such a gift to all who take the time to look at it.

Discoveries While Walking: Flannel Flower

Acrylic Painting, Floral, Impressionism, Originals For Sale, Realistic

I love the Australian bush. I am aware of what a privilege it is to be surrounded by the bush where we live. What it does for me is that it grounds me, when I am anxious or feeling hopeless, it reminds me of God, it reminds me that there are bigger things than the things I am going through. 
One of my favourite things to do in the bush is find wildflowers. I am so fascinated by the contrast between the dry bushland and these beautiful random flowers that come up everywhere. Randomly these shockingly beautiful, intricate and unique flowers spring up.  
How easy is it for us to walk through life with our mind elsewhere and not notice the beauty and the gifts we are surrounded by. 
These visually rich flowers are such a good reminder to me, to get out of my head, all the things that need to be done, the worries that come over and to pause, to appreciate the little things that give life unexpected pleasure

Beeautiful Bee

Acrylic Painting, Floral, Originals For Sale, Realistic

I have become a bit obsessed with bees. When my family and I go for walks we spend a lot of time watching the busy bees doing their thing. They are amazing and without realising we actually rely on them for survival, but we walk past them, everyday doing their work. Thank you God for the busy bees.

I will be doing a mini series of these busy bees. 4 minis and one 76 x 76 cm.

Acrylic Paint on stretched canvas, ready to hang.

Once-ler Wattle Limited Edition Print

Abstract, Limited Edition Print, Realistic, Splatter

Print on paper

Signed and numbered on the front.

I have always loved Dr Seuss, but only as an adult have I really appreciated the depth and profound nature of his writings.
As I was painting the beautiful wattle, I was reminded of The Lorax, and the beautiful truffler trees (before they were cut down).
How lucky are we to be surrounded by such beauty. It is breathtaking to see the diversity around us; even amongst such an unforgiving environment in Australia.
