Ochre Country

My paintings are concerned with patterns and symbols relating to the Australian bush - particularly aerial landscapes in conjunction with objects and artifacts associated with the landscape.
My aim is to refine and clarify symbols and patterns to evoke the moods and quality of the landscape with greater force.

Meine Bilder befassen sich mit Mustern und Symbolen aus dem australischen Busch - besonders mit Luftaufnahmen in Verbindung mit zur Landschaft assoziierten Objekten und Kunstgegenständen.
Mein Ziel ist, Symbole und Muster zu verfeinern und zu verstärken, um die Stimmungen und Qualitäten dieser Landschaft hervorzurufen. (Translation G. G.)
