Tasmanian Coastal Landscape II
In this life I have been incredibly fortunate to travel outside of the United States. One of those journeys took place in High School when I toured with The Berea Festival Dancers to Australia, Tasmania and Fiji.
There are few places I have ever had the thought, “I could live here”, and Tasmania was one of them. When there, we stayed with host families and the one I was placed with had a home a short walk from the rocky coast of Hobart.
The landscapes there were like a dream come awake and I later used pictures from that trip to create a triptych using acrylic paint on Yupo paper. The layered quality provided by allowing the paint to sit on the surface and dry slowly emulates a dreamlike quality that is much like what the experience is to be somewhere that feels unreal.
