Artwork Description

This artwork was influenced by the beautiful colours and formations of Australian opals.
I created many layers of acrylic paint, oil pastels and graphite to make up this lovely intuitive abstract work.
Please see the above youtube video for a more detailed view of this work.
This artwork is painted on stretched canvas, ready to hang, with hanging wire on the back. I have coated it with 2 layers of good quality varnish to protect its surface.
Its initialled on the front and signed on the back.
A certificate of authenticity will be included.

Artist Bio

Each of my mixed media works are built up of many layers. Sometimes the layers will completely disappear, sometimes you can see little traces left behind. I keep adding layer upon layer until I reach a point where I feel that the artwork is finished.

 I usually work intuitively with acrylic paint but I can include a variety of mixed media in my work, including pencil, oil pastel, dry pastel, collage, paint markers and china markers to create each unique piece.

I have been creating art for more than 40 years, mainly as a hobby, but now at this time in my life I am making art my full-time passion. Art is my reason to live, my everything, it feeds my soul and makes me happy.  I hope that these feelings and emotions are passed on to you, as a viewer/owner of my work.

I love nothing more than hearing from the new owner of one of my works, that it has impacted their life in a positive way, that they love to have my work in their private home, office or workplace. It makes my day and fuels my passion to create more art.

My work is held in private collections in Australia and also overseas.
