Capturing the movement of air on the surfaces of the water and clouds; a clear sky rendered with minimal detail sits in contrast to the intricate, ever-changing patterns of the water below. Revealed through areas that are calm and glasslike, while others are gently stirred, creating a rhythm of stillness and motion. Painted on Lutruwita’s Tamar Island, Tasmania, a place of significant beauty, alive with birds, insects, and small animals, yet with a profound sense of quiet. I hope to offer viewers of my painting that same opportunity for reflection and slowing down, mirroring the experience of walking along the boardwalk and simply observing the natural world unfold.
