Inspired by my travels to Australia and New Zealand in 2012, I created Down Under In Green for exhibition in a show entitled “The Green Show” – which accounts for the predominant hue of the works.

The series depicts the art and culture of the Maori (New Zealand) and Aboriginese (Australia) people as well as the beach outing of a group of Australian school children. Sydney’s Opera House (with a glimpse of the Sydney Harbour Bridge) is shown in a “fractured” state – and no “down under” series would be complete without kiwis, kangaroos and koalas!
