Out of stockAn early morning rest at Port Adelaide provides the opportunity to marvel at the emerging dawn. The reflections of the sunrise with the blue hue above the horizon topped with a pink layer before merging into the morning sky is the fascination. This autumn morning had the added bonus of a late moon and reflections on the still Port River.

The early morning catches an interesting mood. The air is clear, the sun is bright, it is not yet hot, the day is full of promise. The light catches the awning's vivid red and the communication tower at the end of the jetty. There is some fascination with the water lapping the shore, the ripples and the shadows under the jetty.

Out of stockThis painting captures my fascination of the colours, reflections, and movement in the waters of Nitmiluk Gorge, the rock faces that have witnessed many thousands of years of floods. Country watched over by the Jawoyn people and culture. As we came to the top of the first gorge, the scene emerged, the rock faces of the gorge, the distinctive nature of territory clouds all coming together.

Out of stockCamped at Curdimurka, just south of Lake Eyre (Kati Thanda) in the heart of Arabana country Here are remnants of a past glory that can easily disappear into the past. It is flat and featureless, but it does have a story. Reflect on the difficulties of building the Ghan dream. Here we have the old water storage, slowly falling apart, we have the old water treatment plant, leaning like the tower of Pizza. But there is more. Why here? The Ghan followed the inland telegraph, that followed the mounds springs, that were crucial to the ancient trading routes across Australia. This is where Stuart commenced his five expeditions into the Red Centre. This is outback Australia.

Palm Valley in the Finke Gorge National Park. It is close to Hermannsburg (Ntaria). The Mpulungkinya Walk takes you to the amphitheatre at the head of the valley immersed in the lands of the Western Aranda people. There is character of this fascinating landscape, water smoothed rocks that tell of vast torrents of water, and yet it exists in a pretty arid landscape. The frequent pools support the Red Cabbage Palm and those white trunked gums that the Hermannsburg school of artists have so famously represented.
