Reflecting on the rugged beauty of Karijini National Park, this circular artwork embodies the serene harmony between water and land. The circular frame draws the viewer into a world of gentle pools. Stark white ghost gums cling to sheer rock faces, their gnarled branches reaching toward the sky. The palette of oranges, greens and whites evokes the harsh yet captivating landscape. Through my brushstrokes, I aim to convey both the resilience of these trees and the essence of nature’s enduring grace.
