SERENDIPITY
This painting started out as a drawing of a mushroom on it's own and evolved to include a few of my other favourite things. I have always had a fascination with mushrooms and the way they just appear in random places after a good bit of rain. As a child I always hoped to find a ring of mushrooms that had held host to a fairy party the night before......I think I only ever found one!
The field of dandelions was inspired by the masses of them I have been seeing around my neighbourhood over the past few weeks, while either walking to work or walking for exercise. They have been a delight to see with their little yellow heads blanketing the previously unexciting grass. Unfortunately though, I have noticed a lack of bees, totally unlike the amount seen when I was little and sitting in the middle of clover patches......very worrying indeed.
Then of course the dragonflies, fairy and moon just begged to be added!

THREATENED WILDLIFE
This painting started it's life when I attended a painting workshop at the local library, in the hope of learning some new skills. The subject wasn't my choice, but something the teacher had selected for everyone to paint. I did struggle with finishing this painting, however I was pretty happy how it turned out in the end. Lesson learnt - paint what I love and choose myself (unless of course I am doing a commission for someone).
The Glossy Black Cockatoo is a member of the "Threatened Wildlife Club of Logan" the city I live in. So unfortunatley you would be lucky to see one of these guys. I have lived in this area for nearly 16 years and I have never seen one!

SNUG AS A BUG
My appreciation for our most famous icon was enhanced by my experiences while working at the Daisy Hill Koala Centre. I learnt of their behaviour, ecology and endearing qualities, but more importantly the omnipresent (man-made) threats affecting their survival.
So I'm going to dedicate a series of painting to these totally unique creatures of ours. I hope it inspires you to learn a little bit more about them and what you might do to help........ http://www.savethekoala.com/

ULYSSES
I love butterflies myself, however I painted this picture as a gift for my Nan who turned 88 on 29 January. I remembered that she had asked me ages ago to paint her a Dunk Island Butterfly, so I thought a birthday was the perfect opportunity to make good my promise!
Butterflies to me are like flying flowers. Everyday without fail I see them gliding through my garden on their endless journey for just the right plant to visit........they never fail to bring a smile to my face.
So "Ulysses" is my first painting for 2011.
