When this reservoir floods, snow-melt waters come up over the green grasses creating amazing emerald reflections and a crisp stillness I wanted to capture.
Talbingo is both a town and a reservoir along the hydro-electric system in the Snowy Mountains of NSW. The reservoir is occasionally flooded when the system needs, bringing the crisp mountain water up over green grass banks . This little lagoon at the edge of the lake fascinated me with its array of green-blues and crisp reflections in the mirror-like surface. The piece is a mix of acrylics with water-soluble oils, with the colour wrapping round the edges for a finished look if hung unframed.
