Australian artist this month is John olsen
who has been one of the biggest inspirations for my art Journey
quote "to be an Australian artist is to be an adventurer"
HE IS SAID TO BE AUSTRALIA'S GREATEST LIVING PAINTER
John Olsen keeps an open eyed innocence of a child
A journey into You Beaut country series is a landscape of the mind
One of my favourite works here "Where the bee sucks, there suck I" that he borrowed from Shakespeare's 'The Tempest'
It reflects on the country life in Clarendon, South Australia linking the land, light, people and attitudes of Australians.
A big attraction for me is John's use of strong colours that creates a joyful sense of place while his curvilinear style makes us feel so alive.
This flowing energy is essential to maintain my belief that "art is the process"
