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.

Afternoon Glow Kanimbla
I love watching the cloud shadows rolling over the hills and mountains changing the mood and marking the moments.

I was exploring the country beyond the Blue Mountains and I drove past this scene. It reminded me of the British countryside I explored as a young artist when I lived there for 6 months in the Eighties. It also looked a bit like a train set to me. I set my gear and started painting.
Sheltered Side
Cairn off Putty
The title referrers to The Putty Road that links the Richmond area to the Hunter Valley via The Great Dividing Range. The pinnacle of rock reminded me of a cairn.
Shadowland
This painting of the Western Escarpment of The Blue Mountains, looking towards Blackheath gave me plenty of opportunity to work a lot of rhythmic brushstrokes into my interpretation that hopefully complement each other in a polyrhythmic way, just as I believe nature does.
