The Tree. Nightcliff Foreshore Painting project

Plunging head first from the railings into the sea. I found this to be a tonic for many ills. 'Diver' Acrylic on wood 10x10 cm

The Story of those living in the mangroves is all about relationships. The network of resources and support that provide a saftey net. The specific areas that each group uses are well understood and the boundries observed.

Sitting in the same place at the same time every day and painting always unearths more that is anticipated.

I sat under a tree on the edge of the sand overlooking the beach and mouth of Rapid Creek.
I was joined by the people who camped in the area and as at Mijijimaya I shared my materials with them and asked them to paint their story.

As I was working through the week this was a series of weekend mornings. Starting at dawn.
