60×40×2cm
framed 62×42×4cm
This richly layered acrylic painting is created on a sturdy wood panel and finished with three coats of gloss medium to bring out the depth of colour and texture. It’s presented in a hand-sanded meranti float frame, waxed to a soft sheen that complements the work without overpowering it. The final surface is gently taken back with beeswax to a beautiful satin finish that catches the light just right.
Wired and ready to hang straight out of the box.
I paint in acrylic on a wood cradled panel
framed in meranti for a finished size of approximately 2 cm all round, larger than the panel size.
d rings and wire are attached to the back
The piece is ready to hang
The painting is finished with 3 coats of gloss medium
When the gloss is dry, the surface is waxed to produce a soft satin finish.
The float frame is hand-constructed,
hand-sanded and
then waxed.
Meranti is a pinkish hardwood
The style and colour frame perfectly the work
A float frame is a simple and contemporary look which enhances a work without overwhelming it

This painting was based on drawings I made during a 100-day project. That year, I drew flowers and plants very near our house, as it was a La Niña year and it rained incessantly. Shelter refers to me sheltering from the rain under beach umbrellas to make my drawings. It also refers to the garden at our home in Cedar Creek, which, as it grew, provided shelter from the harsh Queensland sun.
