Oil on canvas. Ready to hang unframed. 50cm x 60cm.
In the tangles of twigs and grass, nestled into a tree, in a crook in the hillside, or just off the path, there are little creatures busy at their business with no reference to we humans. In my new Hollows collection, I revel in the mystery of what they do and where they go, leaving just a hint to make us wonder, wide eyed and delighted, at who might be in that hole or coming back to that nesting hole when we look away.
As a celebration of Spring, I wanted also to honour the wattle that is so abundant around my home town of Canberra at this time of year. What's not to love about plump litlte birds and millions of tufts of sunshine-yellow!
