Bending Down & Looking Up
|
Bending Down & Looking Up embodies the joy of being saturated in Tasmania’s lush landscape as I’ve made this island my home over the past four years. This collection commemorates the passionate connection I've formed with the land – and the ways its contours have shaped me.
Born from long morning walks in the hills of the Huon valley and slow wanderings through eucalyptus groves, these paintings have emerged from an ever-growing curiosity as I absorb the colours, forms, and textures of Tasmania’s richly diverse environment. |
Each piece celebrates an element of the landscape that has captured my attention and encouraged my roots to grow: luminous, sunlit leaves, ever-changing blue mountains, curving branches, wild skies — all found within a few steps of my front door.
Tasmania’s boundless wilderness has invited me to notice beauty and to revel in the unknown; to linger a little longer, until the new becomes familiar and the foreign becomes home. |
