Oil on Canvas, 150 cm x 100 cm

A delightful exploration of the marks and patterns on a big river red gum tree in Unley Park, using shades of pale Naples yellow, raw sienna, and infusions of burnt sienna and olive green. There is a wonderful energy in the artwork, and a host of forms to discover, though they are hinted at rather than explicitly revealed: curlews, crows, albatrosses, kangaroos, quolls, platypuses, potoroos, storks – ah, and some human forms, dancing while bathed in moonlight.
