Small Paintings

Exhibited for the first time at Creative Open 2024, Small Paintings comprises five minimalist landscape works, each rendered in a bold eclectic colour palette, an ode to the local bushland. These compositions are marked by flat planes of colour, exuding a serene simplicity. Most pieces prominently feature just three essential elements, avoiding any depiction of the horizon. Drawing from the aesthetics of mid century Minimalism and Japanese woodblock prints, the artist distills the essence of the bushland into pure forms and hues, celebrating the landscape's quiet yet profound elegance.
