Painting Now

A group of  paintings exhibited at Michael Reid Sydney, as part of a group show “Painting Now”. The paintings consisted of fantastical scenes and landscapes which drew from the artists experiences and observations of the grasses and under-stories of a property in the Southern Tablelands of NSW/ Walbunja Country where he lived between 2017 – 2022 and where his family had lived for over two decades.
