This picture was painted after a trip to Australia; the birds and butterflies I photographed in Queensland. The Cassowary was tricky! The narrative is influenced by the novel "Illywhacker" by Australian writer Peter Carey in which the central character in part one always carries a bag of snakes around with him, and in part two, his son and wife live in a bizarre pet shop, exporting parrots to America. The Illywhacker (confidence trickster) has an obvious antipathy towards colonialists and Aussies who "when they've earned a bob, become Englishmen."
