Ghost Van of Capertee
Ghost Van of Capertee, 31cm x 41cm, watercolour on paper, 2025
It was the link for so many people, between one stage of their lives, and the next. It was sometimes a happy occasion, and sometimes a disappointment. Many of those people have passed, and some are still living. The old van won’t be moving people now. It sits beside a shed and waits for rust, lichen, and the weather to take it back to the earth.

Afternoon at Narrow Neck
Afternoon at Narrow Neck, 101cm x 132cm,acrylic on canvas, framed in Tasmanian Oak, 2025. This picture is not available , It was commissioned from this website.
I made this work as a result of a query from a couple who view my website and saw my Blue Mountains paintings. They wanted an image of a place special to them. It happened to be a place that I love painting. The work was made from a series of photographs that I took in the last Summer days of 2024 and the mountains turned on a spectacular sunset that evening. This vantage point is about halfway along the dirt road that leads across Narrow Neck, near Katoomba.
