A Day By The Weir
$360.00
I rarely went out to paint in the middle of the day, the heat being extreme at this time of year. “The Weir” is the Hume weir or dam near Albury/ Wodonga, created in the 1950’s to service agriculture downstream. The upside of a good year, ie; a year where it has rained a lot and the snow melt from the Kosciuszko range was considerable, is that the weir is full or at least above 60%. Couple that with lots of tourists, caravans, campers, picnickers and people with all kinds of water sport apparatus from kayaks to speed boats and you have a day by the weir. The breathtaking blue of the big sky, the wheaten and brown dried grass on the hills, deep green aquamarine water, yellow and red ochre sand/earth. Australia in Summer.
All paintings in this series are shadow-box mounted and in a show-wood timber frame ready for hanging or freestanding
