Gunderbooka Grey Skies

This image was my first after a long hiatus from painting. I have recently been experimenting with gauche and pastels and found the medium suitable for the way I work. The inspiration for the image came from some photography work I did for National Parks and Wildlife at Bourke.

Gunderbooka Nest

This image is the last of the latest 3 completed during my recent holidays in February. I have always been fascinated by the way the ants around Gunderbooka mountain organize their nest using leaves that have fallen to the ground. This is my second attempt using this subject matter.
