Out West and Exploring Still Life Painting

Early painting days were a mixture of western NSW and still lifes, due to my employment for those years in South Western NSW, Australia. Then I made it back to the coast and was captivated by the ocean, and, to some degree (alright, a great degree) by old boats.
