This piece is one of four created for the recent group show “A Nest in the Hills - The Symbiosis of Women and Birds in Contemporary Australian Art” Dec 2025 - Mar 2026 at Mudgee Arts Precinct
“Life Force” Mixed media, Ink and charcoal on wood panel, 101cm x 76m, 4cm deep profile, unframed.
Finished with a satin spray varnish, D-rings and wire, ready to hang.
Artist Statement: There is a life force that moves quietly yet powerfully through us and nature, the same energy that fuels imagination and artistic creation. Creativity is something I seek out everyday whether is one hour or many. Whether it’s art, gardening or making a home it is ever-present in my make up.
The Eastern Spinebill, with its swift movements and ability to find nourishment in tricky places embodies vitality and the Kangaroo Paw with its quirky sculptural flowers stands as a symbol of creativity and resilience.
I wanted to capture not just the forms of nature, but their spirit, that vital energy that inspires us all to create and grow.
