Brook Street Houses
Acrylic, Ink, Graphite and Oil Pastel on Paper
64cm x 54cm
Any painting lies somewhere between complete abstraction and complete representation. This painting is another attempt at abstracting the landscape more so that it is clear what is represented but that the painting takes on a character of its own. Like any landscape Brook Street is layer upon layer of pattern that comes together in a way that is distinctive for the area. The low lying red california bungalow roofs, the electricity wires and the foliage are features that are intrinsic to the character of Coogee.
Wonderful painting, love the pops of colour. Have a sweet day!

ReplyDeleteThanks for all your comments. This painting was an experimentation with more mixed media layers. I used the paint vigorously using the end of the paint brush for some of the marks.
