Old Ferry & Trunkey Creek Shack, Australia
Watercolour, Size 38 x 28 cms
The impetus for this painting was the wonderful photo by Carol McLaren
Theolog of the old do-it-yourself ferry across the creek, and then I
decided to combine it with my photos of the old Australiana shacks
…which as usual, I had to doctor and improvise to come up with a
reasonable composition…so at least I hoped.
Unfortunately, the
Arches watercolour paper gave me hell again…it was one of those
frustrating pieces of ”blotting” paper (alas sizing gone bad)..but I
persevered.
I really like this painting, it really tells a story. The more I look the more I see.
