G'Day

Size: 122.5 x 94cm (Framed)

Oil on canvas.

Property of Maria Cinque

I saw these Black Cockatoos while driving with friends just outside Nelson Bay. They couldn't have been in a better setting, they are such amazing birds, with their glossy plumage and dashes of colour, the stark pale dead trees were perfect.

Darter Base

Size: 88 x 78cm (Framed)

Oil on Canvas

Property of Yohanna Balog

I saw this Darter on a Yellow Water Cruise in Kakadu. He - She, was everything I was looking for to paint, I couldn't believe my luck. The colours, the texture. The way He - She was perched on this excellent nest, clear from anything else. Looked quite precarious, must have been a good builder.

In Repose

Size: 67 x 56cm (Framed)

Oil on Canvas (Stock)

Kookaburras were known as "Hawkesbury Clock" to the early settlers. Many didn't own a time piece and would rely on their early morning and late afternoon calling or laughing. They are a lovely looking bird, quite substantial and family orientated.

Kyla

Size: 77.5 x 116cm (Unframed)

Oil on Canvas

Gifted to Dreamworld

This painting I did for Dreamworld, after the very sad and unexpected death of Kyla.

Mohan

Size: 107 x 84cm (Framed, under Glass)

Oil on Oil paper (Stock)

Beautiful Boy, so laid back, very relaxed, yawned, constantly.

Rakkan

Size: 105.5 x 76cm (Unframed)

Oil on Canvas (Stock)

He was my stalker, very playful, and superb markings.

Somewhere over Kaka over Collins

Size: 103 x 56.5 (Framed)

Oil on Canvas (Stock)

This is high over the Kakadu area. The Landscape is painted over a portrait of an Ex N.S.W. Politician.

Two for a Duck

Watercolour on paper

Property of Barry Jarrett

I entered the first and only James Hardie Wildlife Art Award, with watercolour of two black ducks. I had just moved house, I came home from the framers, unwrapped the painting placed it on the floor on the paper leaning on the wall. My male cat Babe obviously wasn't impressed by the move and attempted to pee on the painting. Luckily he wasn't on target. Two for a Duck went on to win the Status Stamp Award, part of the James Hardie Award.
