Tasmanian Art 1990-2016
This gallery is a collection of paintings of scenes close to where we live. The farm scenes are close to a beautiful old historic village called Evandale. I have also included a number of scenes of the Freycinet Peninsula, in my opinion one of the most beautiful places on the planet.
The farmhouse scene with the goat was the result of a chance encounter with a curious goat who approached me to say hello, while I was exploring the north-west coast of Tasmania. The ‘First Sighting’ is a work I was inspired to do while on a visit to Bruny Island off the south-east coat of Tasmania.
On this island I stood at a place called ‘Wurrudi’s Lookout’, where the last chief of the Bruny Island people would have seen the ship of the first explorer to come to the area come to shore.
