Shadows
Early morning sunlight produces long shadows and heralds the start of a bright day. In Queensland we enjoy bright sunshine most of the year and we crave the protection that is provided by the shadows.
Blue and White
Blue and white porcelain has been valued by collectors in many cultures and used in still life paintings for many centuries.
The Tin Fence
Galvanised iron was used for tin fences and as a cheap building material in many places in Queensland. These constructions can still be seen in many Queensland country towns.
Camellias
Camellias flower in early winter when not much else is flowering. Therefore they make great subjects for still life painting at that time of the year.
