Painting small studies is something I can lose myself in. Playing around with colour, shapes and texture on a small scale is somehow freeing. I usually spend a bit of time with studies to investigate the interaction between elements, composition and overall feel, before committing to painting the piece on a larger scale. These are all unique, original paintings by me, generally painted with acrylics (sometimes mixed media) on offcut archival watercolour paper or canvas.

Usually on the sheltered side of a big headland in this part of the world, there is a grove of Casuarina’s. There is something about their dry wispyness against the movement of the ocean and those lovely turquoises, then of course the wave and the suds. Meditative.
