Over the last couple of month I have been inspired by the moon. The paintings I have created so far have sometimes a dreamlike feel to it but also depict what I experienced last March at a clear night at the Ross Creek Centre for the Arts in Canning. The cold air and the distance to the city lights, makes for wonderful star gazing. It was a night of a very young waxing moon when I saw this slice of light coming up over the horizon. A small piece of the moon reflecting the light of the sun. The strength of the light was amazing. I started to pay even more attention to the moon in the last couple of months. I will continue to explore the shades, the light, the lines and the night colours.

Opening Reception: Sunday, September 30 from 2-6 p.m.
