A little bit more from the artist |
Each ink and trace monotype card proceeds with an overlay of original jottings inspired by met home space in the Gilmour Valley.
Woodlands ‘Depicted’ is an ongoing series conveying the very things I see and feel. A piece of the life I live through imagery.
Note | most artworks have detailed information from Donna who provides stories about her observations of life on her seven acre space.

Photography | Anne Masters (Note: Anne endeavours to capture the colours of each artwork but due to the photographic process and your computer screen settings - colours may vary slightly).
This body work was inspired by a recent tour of Central Australia, with a particular focus on the dramatic colours and light experienced in this unique environment. I was captivated by the graphic lines defining the landscape as strong shadows are cast and the red earth and rock is illuminated, particularly during sunrise and sunset.
