Heart Song

Surf washes in on silver sand

blood pounds as I leap the gaps of  lichen covered rocks

the sea breeze races in hurling stinging sand against my skin

I taste salt in the air

I feel alive

heart sings!

The Bay of Fires on Tasmania’s east coast remains one of my favourite places to visit, photograph and paint. The colours are so  vibrant – orange lichens on steely grey rocks and that clear turquoise water lapping the silver beaches. Memories are locked into this landscape and each painting embeds those memories deeper in my soul.
