What was your inspiration?
Summer in Western Australia to me is white sandy beaches and turquoise blue water, waves and calm water in the one location.
What are you most proud of?
Finding colours that seem to work together ok.
Representing rolling waves with bubbles and white froth as the waves crash to the shore.
There are many colours in the water and on the beach.
