Where Dragons Play, 2020, oil on canvas, 100 x 72 cm.
This work is inspired by the scene I enjoyed from the heights of Mt Hartz in December 2018 looking north toward Frenchman’s Cap in Tasmania’s south west wilderness. This is within Tasmania's South West National Park, and the area is known for its wild weather and rugged untouched Nature.
It is an extremely detailed work, so please find below close ups of the painting for an appreciation of the fine work involved.
