The Artist
The National Australia Bank Art Collection

"I'm interested in finding the most brief and telling divisions of the canvas regarding area, tone and colour."
"[I have] memories of the last landscape of Monet seen at the Marmottan gallery in Paris. The wild gesture and colour. Memories of Pollock."

The artist's journal, 1977

This painting was produced following the artist's visit to Bet Bet Creek near Maryborough, Victoria.
