I painted two works of this treehouse. In META lX you can see the same treehouse from the back. Depending on the direction of my walks, I could see either the front or the back, and the striking difference always made me think. The front showed a perfect weatherboard facade, with an expansive view over the suburbs all the way to Melbourne. The back of the treehouse however was broken up, the boards damaged by termites and woodworm and neglect, disbanding the idea of climbing up into the tree and settle in for a while (in a Scout Finch kind of way!). This two-sided way reminded me of film sets or theatre props. Now, a few years later, the treehouse is gone, leaving behind a rectangular shape, framed by branches and leaves, its presence slowly disappearing.

Switzerland
I have been working as a painter for the past twenty years, both in Australia, and Switzerland. Throughout my career I have been working with five colours almost exclusively, mixed or layered. I hardly ever use white, instead working with the canvas' brightness. The stripes in my META and Kingfisher works develop over time, many layers leading up to the final composition. I do not use masking tape or rulers, only allowing for two or three measured vertical lines on a canvas as guides at the very beginning of each painting.
