Paintings of Brooklyn

Whilst at Brooklyn, I completed a painting of the path leading up the house from the car port. Perched high over the sandstone escarpment, the grounds included a cave, brilliantly orange and ochre when the sun hit it.


The study I made of the escarpment near the house was also turned into a painting. Muted colours, purple shadows and the barest hint of the glorious sandstone colour is in this painting: it depicts the escarpment just as the sun hits it early in the morning.


Indeed I got my pants all wet from perching on a dewy fence.
