I see things in nature that awe-inspire me like sunsets, trees, rugged cliffs, rural vistas, i see beauty expressed in more simple scenes, such as the morning light drawing highlights & creating shadows or the heat haze of a summers day enveloping the whole landscape. With this inspiration I paint very quickly & vigorously to express what I feel Graham has spent most of his life in the "World Heritage listed" Blue Mountains west of Sydney. This region with its natural beauty was Graham's inspiration to become a Landscape Artist After 30 Years of professionally Painting he has won many awards, including a number of first places, had sell-out exhibitions at Prouds Art Gallery Sydney & has his paintings in some of Australia's most prestigious Art Galleries as well as the consulates.
