This is part of the "Rain" series, inspired by the life giving rain that is so needed after fire and drought.
'First rain' shows the drought and fire ravaged bush and the first drops of rain.

Broad brush strokes and textured oil paint create a textured sky and land. Soft metal foil shimmers in the distant horizon. Ink and charcoal delineate a scorched earth.

I can create a similar piece in another size or color range. Don't hesitate to contact the friendly Saatchi Team!

I paint, I create and make things that make me happy. Sounds simple enough... but maybe that's what it should be. I was born in Ireland, grew up in Zimbabwe and have lived in the UK,USA and Australia. Meeting new people and exploring where I live inspires much of my work. I create in a medium appropriate to the inspiration. My artwork finds expression in oils, acrylics, charcoal, mixed media and glass. I use print making, stenciling, texture, fabric and transfers to create multi-layered tactile pieces. You will find my unique artwork in offices, hotels, homes, bars and restaurants in Australia, Europe, USA, Canada, China, Singapore and Southern Africa. I have 14 years of experience consulting on various international projects where the work was created to specification as the majority of the projects required custom made artwork. I understand how to evaluate and select materials that align with aesthetics, compliance and individual needs. I am very comfortable with collaborating on a brief and love the cross pollination of ideas that result from co-designing art work.
