Artwork Description

Longreach was such a hot place in summer so, when I saw this bridge over a dry creek bed I decided to paint it in cool colours, a stunning spot to be surrounded by.
My heart felt so full of life and satisfied as I stood in this vast countryside.

Signature on the front is my previous married name, the painting will be signed on the back of the Frame with my maiden name (Simic). Certificate of authenticity will come with the painting.

Artist Bio

Based on Coochiemudlo, a smaller island situated approximately a kilometre off the coast of Queensland, between Brisbane and North Stradbroke Island, Millie, an award winning artist, is innately influenced by the abundance of foliage and wildlife that inhabit her locality.
Unbound to a sole medium or creative methodology, her depictions align with the subject’s intrinsic elements and resonance. Millie paints in a way that depicts her thoughts and feelings of the subject, which has helped her tremendously throughout her adult life and experiences.
“There is no grief as you embrace and involve yourself deeply within the subject of your painting,” Millie states after the passing of her only son in 2003. “Painting was a lifesaving form of comfort at the time of my son’s passing, and continues to be up to the present moment.”
Millie possesses a BA in Fine Arts from Charles Sturt University and a Masters in Art Therapy from the University of Queensland.
