Artwork Description

Being a frequent visitor to the Sunshine Coast beaches I was always fascinated by the pandanus palm with its broad canopy of inter woven spirally arranged sword-like leaves.
This wonderful sub-tropical tree which dominates most of the coastal area and dunes of the Sunshine Coast was the inspiration and challenge for this painting.
The painting comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.

Artist Bio

My True Love.
Generally my style of art is Representational โ€“ realistic stuff, anything that has a strong recognisable subject. Sometimes however I abandon my fine art lured by my previous life as a graphic designer and momentarily I'm overcome and revert to the use of minimalist shapes, images and bright colours.
Being an impatient individual, I prefer to work with acrylics rather than other mediums because of their quick drying time. This allows me the flexibility to make mistakes, knowing that I'm able to quickly correct and paint over them.
As an artist I usually I start with a pencil sketch in my painting diary. I don't necessarily paint it straight away, but often visit the diary as inspiration for future work. My true love is the challenge of capturing the the things and sights that have inspired me on my travels around and about.
