Acrylic on Polycotton

Framed in Tasmanian Oak

Moored at peaceful Taylor’s Bay on Sydney Harbour and cocooned from the frenetic pace of Sydney life,  I’ve drawn its densely vegetated foreshore many times. Dominated by towering Angophoras and punctuated by outcrops of Sydney sandstone, it’s a challenge to incorporate these giants of the scene as well as the complex understory.

By using strong shapes as well as detailed patterning, I hope to convey grandeur as well as the quiet beauty of the smaller elements of this foreshore landscape.

As a visual artist I want to inspire viewers to seek out this secluded bay, on foot or on watercraft and commit to preserving and enhancing our Sydney Harbour foreshore.
