Oil on Canvas, 120 cm x 180 cm

‘Winter Song’ is a dynamic and flowing interpretation of the bark patterns in the trunk of a large river red gum in Mitcham. Rich pearlescent white cascades like ice flow across seams of dark raw umber, and meets spills of ultramarine blue and turquoise green, with flares in tones of crimson alizarin, hinting at the figures in the trunk’s markings: the warm nude, the cool nude, the monitor lizard, the duck, the platypus, the tadpole, the dingo, the antelope, the buffalo, the humpback whales, the magpie, the coot, the frog, the bumblebee, the turtles, the bowerbird.
