SEND ‘ER DOWN HUGHIE
A clap of distant thunder, followed by an amazing light show…. then before you know it, Mother Nature unleashes a taste of her fury!  It’s a piece of her strength that you don’t want to get caught up in, but only too happy to witness from a good distance!  ‘Send ‘Er Down Hughie’ is a term used by Aussies when much needed rain comes and the skies open up and produce an angry downpour, along with some extra trimmings to go with it.  I hope you all can get to feel the Awe of this painting as much as I did painting it.

David O’Halloran was born in October, 1974. He was not only born with a gift for art, he inherited it. Being the son of Artists Judy Pickering and Eric Minchin, but also related to two of Australia’s greatest Artists, Tom Roberts and Clifton Pugh.... it was to no surprise that David would follow down the same path. As a child he spent many hours watching his mother paint and exhibit alongside The Brushmen Of The Bush from Broken Hill, NSW. As a young man he continued to watch and learn as she passed on her knowledge of the arts to him. He calls himself a Realist Artist, specialising in Landscape painting. David alternates between oil and acrylic paint, depending upon the individual piece he wants to create. He uses a combination of brush and palette knife techniques and gives his work texture, using a generous amount of paint and he likes to apply the colour in a rich vibrant appearance on the canvas. O’Halloran captures the Australian Outback in his landscapes beautifully, whether it be on a miniature or mural size base, he is able to create so much distance within the painting, making the viewer look back over the rich earthy reds of the desert until it meets those amazing big, blue skies, displaying just how big Australia really is. He admires the work of Monet and Titian and has been greatly influenced by the works of Pro Hart and Tom Roberts, as well as Albert Namitjira. Other artists he is inspired by include the likes of Jenny Greentree, Len Hend, Andrew Tischler and of course his mother Judy. David is a RAW artist and exhibited his work at The October, 2015 RAW Brisbane Showcase. He was a finalist at the Gympie Art Competition in 2014 and his work has been published in magazines and newspapers. David has been featured on radio and has appeared on The Great South East TV show as well as The Queensland Weekender in 2016. In the past three years, David has now sold over 100 original artworks to private collectors both International and right across Australia. He has also donated his paintings to various charity organisations, such as Make A Wish Foundation and Montrose Access. David O’Halloran really is part of a unique family legacy, overflowing with undeniable talent. He is without a doubt a true credit to Australian Art.
