Hi Roena,  Thank you very much for your lovely comment and thank you for looking at my paintings.  Yes, I paint in watercolour, acrylic and oils.  Sometimes when we are away traveling, I also sketch but I prefer painting.  I would love to catch up with your friend from Victoria.  Yes, Victoria is quite a long way from where I live and a station is a huge property much bigger than mine.  But we have camped on many stations when on holidays and traveling in the outback.  If you can think of your friends contact details, I would love to contact her and maybe we could catch up one day. :-)

This is wonderful!  Do you also do water color or acrylic or like to sketch?  I have a dear friend in OZ who would love to meet a fellow sketcher and WC artist.  I realize OZ is the size of the USA and you may not live close to each other at all (LOL), but what if you did?  They spent years managing a station, so you could relate to owning land.  I am trying to remember where she is exactly.  I think down in the part of the OZ where she is......in Victoria?

Thank you so much Olivia.  I'm so pleased that you like my paintings.  The outback is a beautiful place and I just love trying to paint it!  We are in fact heading away to this area again in July for a couple of months, so I'm very much looking forward to producing some more of these brightly coloured paintings.

Lovely Coleen, i really like the overall looseness of this one

You have nice ariel perspective in the colours of the distant mountains. If you don't mind me suggesting I think if you softened the edge slightly where the mountains meet the sky, so the line isn't so insistent, it would send them back further. You have a great sense of colour.

Thank you Ningning. This is a beautiful colourful part of Australia so it lends itself well to painting. I'm pleased you like it.
