Colours of our Land

30.5X30.5cm, Acrylic on Linen, framed
Our home, a harsh, sunburnt country, is one bursting with miraculous life. Coloured with the delicate pale yellow of tiny banksias, a soft reflection of the sun that gives life to the land. The firery burnt orange of the kangaroo paws matching the earth from which they came. The deep blue-green of the gum leaves gently swaying in the breeze, mimicking the movement of the ocean that peacefully laps our shores. The blossom of the tea tree, the purest of white, speaking of the hope of each new day given us. These are the colours of our country.
