Crookhaven River, 2024

The Crookhaven River is rich with marine life and surrounded by the silhouette of the Cambewarra Mountain range, lush farmland and coastal mangroves. This piece is an observation of my time on the river; my organic forms echo the patterns and textures in the landscape, and my mark-making reflects the landscape as I paddle down the river at a slow pace.
