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.

Point Pilcher Bop, 48 x 34.5cm, Acrylic on board, 2022- sold

I made this plein air work at Point Pilcher near Medlow Bath in the Blue Mountains. The landscape was so dramatic that for some reason I felt the need to lighten it up and jazz it up with a bit of funky cartoon like brushwork, hence the title Point Pilcher Bop. The clouds are barely exaggerated.

The Road to Mount Hay, acrylic on board, 128cm x 49cm, 2020

Mount Hay in the Blue Mountains was hit by one of the hottest and most destructive fires in the 2019/20 Australian Summer bushfire season. Many of the small eucalyptus trees were hollowed out at the base by the fierce fires but new shoots began to appear after a few weeks.
