Jo Cripps Australia Honorable Mention Abstract Amateur "Colours of Australia" Colours of Australia is a playful interlude with a land that has inspired many artists due to the conceptual diversity it offers. One only has to travel a few miles to witness the vast changes in terrain and weather conditions. Loving this country and all that it offers allows me to see it in a way that an outsider may not. Connection to a country is more than a superficial ownership of property, it is a deep seeded value that has no monetary significance within your mind. I hope you all enjoy this representation of my homeland, which I have portrayed as a depiction of the image I carry in my heart. |
