This photo composite combines photography and painting created with gouache & acrylic paint mixed with red dirt collected from our time living in Fitzroy Crossing, Kimberley W.A.

The elements have been digitally combined, blended and layered to portray an impressionistic, textured and painterly presence in the work.

Sunset is when the Kimberley country glows red & becomes soft after the harsh, bright heat of the day. This work tries to capture that smokey softness & the guardian like spirit of the ancient Boabs watching over the country. The textures are inspired by fabric and the woven stories of the people and landscape that are inseparable.
