NEW LIMITED EDITION ARTWORK TO EXPLORE
Burning Outback
The artwork is a photography of an orange hulled boat at water line level and its reflection on the water and takes its inspiration from Australian landscape painters Tim Olsen and Fred Williams.
Invisible Eyes
Invisible Eyes is a deeply personal work, rooted in my connection to the land, water, and my search for identity as an Australian.
Captain C. Gull on Alert, Too
A playful nod to surrealism, this artwork captures a seagull with an almost human vigilance—transformed by nature’s own hand into a commanding presence.

Kandinsky’s Follies — Finding Music in the Water
Kandinsky’s Follies began simply enough: a close-up photograph of a reflection on the surface of the water. The colours came from a vessel, but the water had taken possession of them. Blue, yellow, white, black and gold had been stretched and twisted into fluid forms that seemed to dance across the surface. I knew there was something in the image, but for some time I couldn't find its name.

Light Consciousness - A Psychedelic Travellers Journey by Roger Foley Fogg
I am delighted to be quoted in Roger Foley’s wonderful new book, Light Consciousness - A Psychedelic Travellers Journey which charts his career as one of Australia’s leading lighting designers. Roger began designing rock concerts and psychedelic light shows in the 1960s. His experimental work—including his lumino-kinetic Light Sculpture—continued through the 1970s and anticipated many of today’s multimedia installations and immersive experiences. Roger asked me to contribute my thoughts on abstract art and its creation after reading an earlier reflection on abstraction in my Art Journal. His book is an extraordinary record of the beginnings of an art form that has now become widely recognised and fashionable: the multimedia experience. A PDF copy of Roger’s book can be downloaded below. [Download Roger Foley’s book]
