YUMMY HOLIDAY

NICE VIEW

Have you seen  wonderful choice of the Packing Room people at   the Art  Gallery  of  NSW  for  the   Archibald prize.         It shows great strengh of character  and  is  by artist   Raelene Sharpe.
I love her use of light,  it  is   outstanding .   The   technique   was used  by an earlier  Australian artist
Arhur  Streeton who was an impressionist and showed the beautiful  light  of the  Australian   landscape.

The portrait is of John Wood.
