Ghost Town,  31cm x 41cm, watercolour on paper,  2025

Shale oil was mined in the township of Glen Davis NSW, from the late nineteenth century until the 1950’s when the mine closed. The planned village streets are empty,  as are what remains of this village centre.

Dogface, 84cm x 61cm, acrylic on canvas, framed, 2023– sold

The title of this cliff face dates back to a time before an early morning in January 1931 when when a great section of the escarpment face that gave it it’s name, cleaved off and fell into the valley. This rockface is regarded as a dangerous challenge for some very experienced climbers. In this painting I was trying to show just how stark, shocking and colourful this rock face is as it sits amidst the ancient cliffs just north of Katoomba.
