Sometimes something tells me, I think, ..’I should draw’..
But, when I look around me, I find drawings everywhere. Nature does such a fantastic job, how can I compete with that??!!…
And so I translate and show …..Nature’s drawings..
In this picture you see two elements that for me mark Australia; seaweed from the all surrounding ocean and burn marks on timber and trees from the bush fires.
I did some experiments with the natural dye of seaweed in 2009, and the burn marks I found about a week ago on one of the longest jetties of the southern hemisphere.
