Wide Brown River Bank and the Spanish BBQ Painting

Wide Brown River Bank and the Spanish BBQ, Exhibited for Sunburnt Country in February 2018, the title had the word Chimenia, in place of Spanish BBQ, and reports came back that people did not understand it. Having grown up camping along the Murray River, Australia's longest river, and travelling with family and friends across the country's parched summer earths, I return to these places to paint, creating new memories. There happened to be a somewhat odd Spanish cooking oven, the odd shape at the lower right of the painting, people obviously gathered around it for meals, it was a reminder of fun, family, and how times change. the ladders show the place on the levy, the earthy embankment that protects the house paddock from the seasonal floods of the river. Work in the studio captures the powerful impact colour has on my memory of place. and the river seemed yellow in the brilliant sunshine, reflecting the spring willow leaves. Far from the hustle of society and influence the work of Fred Williams, his sparse landscapes with extraordinary daubs of intense colour subconsciously creep into the process of this work.
