   “Twilight Cove” Esperance
  I decided to make a diptych of
  this scene because the scope
  was just too big for
  one small piece.
  The colour of the water
  in Esperance is astounding-
  with every shade from yellow
  to green to blue to purple.
  I don’t see that kind of sea
  colour in Bali.
  The contrast of the purple
  daisies, growing wildly in the
  foreground made
  it all the more attractive.

   Blue Flowers
   In spring, the state of Western Australia bursts
   into flower. In this case, growing alongsid of
   the road somewhere a long way inland of Esperance,
   when we were on our way back to Perth from a trip.
   It seems to me that enormous crowds of enthusiastic
   florists have been everywhere planting bouquets of
   flowers into the ground. At any other time of the year
   this scene would look very dry and barren.

"Purple Flowers" 2006
Kensington Bushland
Soft pastel on sand paper

    “Purple Flowers” Kensington
   The little star flowers grew around
   Maddington, where I grew up. I love the
   way the colours vary from light to dark
   purple petals, and yellow to orange inside.
