The Winding Wingecarribee, 2024

OIL ON LINEN
102 × 82 cm
As the seasons change, I find myself drawn to the timeless allure of the Wingecarribee River, the life blood of the Southern Highlands. The landscape, bathed in late summer light and veiled in winters mist, holds a profound resonance for me. Inspired by the works of the Australian Impressionists, I’m exploring the interplay of light, texture, and emotion that defines the beauty of the Wingecarribee River. With each brushstroke I seek to convey the enchantment of the highlands.
