Love Will Lift You Up

Love Will Lift You Up is a painting about the invisible force that carries you when everything else feels heavy. A painting for the moments when someone else's warmth becomes the thing that gets you off the ground.

Love Will Lift You Up is an original acrylic painting on board, part of my ongoing Australian landscape work. It began the way these paintings always do, with a pour I don't control, then trees and cockatoos worked in loosely and fearlessly to the last mark. The blues and pinks run right through it, and two small figures stand at the top of the hill where the quiet is.

Painted on MDF board with artist quality acrylics. Ready to hang. Certificate of authenticity included. Ships worldwide direct from my studio in Brisbane, Australia.

I grew up in a house that smelled of oil paint, watching my father work without ever being taught. Thirty years on, my paintings stand on loose, accidental grounds, half accident, half intention, made somewhere in the middle where the paint and I meet. My cockatoos and figures are all one thing: my family, painted over and over in a glowing landscape, with the conviction that real happiness comes from within. Painting full time since 1998, Brisbane, Australia.
