oil on canvas
I grew up here on the Sunshine Coast, so to say that the forest and the ocean is influential in my work would be an understatement. However, I’m not content to replicate nature; I purposely create elements like the black and white lines in this series that contrast the organic elements. I make a puzzle for myself to solve by bringing in not only crisp lines but colours, textures and shapes that don’t exist in the natural environment. The challenge is then for me to find a way to create unity that is aesthetically pleasing but not entirely comfortable.
