Wildflowers #1 is an intimate study of the small, resilient patterns that define the Australian scrubland. At this scale, the work moves away from the panoramic to focus on the 'micro-landscape'—the tangled beauty of native flowers and the subtle shifts of light that filter through the undergrowth.
Working with oil and cold wax on paper creates a soft, organic texture that mirrors the delicate nature of the subject. Each layer is built to capture the 'shimmer' of the bush, where vibrant highlights meet deep, shadowed earth. This piece is an invitation to slow down and notice the details that are so often walked past—a quiet celebration of the complexity and vitality found in the smallest corners of our natural world.
