‘Tumbling Hakeas’ Acrylic painting on canvas.

This Still Life painting imagines a jar of Hakeas tipping over, spilling its contents over a table- cloth and tumbling to the floor. I enjoy painting different perspectives of a traditional still life painting.

‘Banksia Moth’ Acrylic Painting on canvas

Insects play an important role in the world of flowers, fruits that normally feature in Still Life paintings. The close view of the moth reveals intricate patterns, shapes and colours. The moth may only live a short time on average one to six months depending on its individual genetics and environmental factors. The banksia, gum nuts and paper daisies decompose into the surrounding landscape.
