Surf Check Painting

This painting depicts the daily drives I took with my father to his beloved Trigg Beach, WA. The drive would take us over the hill to where the large stretch of coast just seemingly appeared. The painting uses a variety of techniques including impasto work and layering to bring about the colours I visualized from childhood. I have also attempted to configure within the paintings an actual physical rendering of my sensory experiences. Working for months on this series, I have shifted between the inspirational landscapes to an imaginary seascape or Earth accompanied
by skies reminiscent of childlike imagination. I have deliberately sought to represent the traces of this back and forth in the preserved lines of solidified paint, from the warm, tonal earthiness of the ‘land’ to the cool, blues and greens of the ‘sea’. Since one place is a real location and the other a region of the mind, the attempt to describe this journey is largely an imaginative one.
