Lillypads

Lillypads was inspired by a trip to the Cairns Botanical Gardens. While there I saw one lone lilly standing proud and tall in a huge lilly pond. The image stuck in my mind. This is my favourite piece so far. I discovered that if you mix organic kitty litter with glue and a little bit of plaster you can create an amazing relief effect. My work is never 'perfect'. I rarely plan what I am going to paint; just have an idea or see it clearly in my mind and start to play to see what arrives on the canvas. Some days every time I close my eyes I see another amazing image. Do they always come out how I see them in my mind's eye? No. But I have such fun!
