Rainbow Maelstrom

Description

Open Edition Reproduction

The notion of simultaneity is something I have been working with for many years now- where it is, where it was, where it will be. I am in thrall to the Cubists and the Futurists, who first stated working with ways to show temporal progression, and it’s actually my main subject whenever I paint birds.

Combining clear and bright colours with the ochres and earths of Australian soils is one of my favourite things to do, and the Rainbow bee-eater with its underground burrow for nesting is a much loved subject of mine.
