OCAC Art Camp

Collage created by six year old Rhys.



Kandinsky Colour study, each child did 6 squares and we taped them all together to form one large painting. Impressive!!

Abstracted Realism

Mystic Mountain
Inspired by the rockies and a moody sky this very aboriginal looking woman appeared in my painting.


Deep in Thought

This painting was totally intuitive, as I was splashing some colour onto my canvas I saw this face appear.






Mysterious

Once again this face intuitively appeared out of an abstract I woas doing, check out her eye is was a stamp from Africa that I had put inbefore she appeared, the postmark her pupil with the white of the stamp above it. Her hat is enhanced with cheesecloth.








I tried to be abstract!!

Yellowstone Inspirations






These abstract textural paintings where inspired by a trip to Big Sky Montana and Yellowstone National Park. I took over 500 digital photos of the texture of the amazing landscape.

A Tree I Stand



A tree I stand tall, my roots
Firmly planted in my beliefs
Each ring of growth
Another year of wisdom
New branches, spring green
Renewal
My journey continues
This is a piece I recently entered in a show called Chapter and Verse
