Bonnie is a koolie, a working dog she loves a pat.The Koolie is a working or herding dog.

There is nothing worse than being put in a box! How confining! . I'm a tonal realist portrait painter! It IS a VERY specific genre! There is NOTHING like an original painted work!!! These are portraits which tell the story of the person in the painting the origials will last 100s of years... It’s my favourite thing to make because its also the most fun for the person in the portrait! My original commissioned works are in Corporate and Private collections, Aust, USA, Hong Kong, these are not, or will EVER be prints online!! I also like to make other works here is a selection.

May the rash commence... artists / galleries / art lovers you know what I mean. ❤️ Art!

Gumleaves drop all year round but more so in summer

The curved legs on a piano which was in our vineyard for a while. It decomposed.

Vintage is a critical time of the year.Years work goes into producing fruit. Its always a miraculous transformation when the nets go on. Pre vintage we have to save our fruit from bird strike!

Our pink tree Dalias flower in May.

When you put your ear to a shell you can hear the sea.

Merlot grapes at Magpie Springs.

The aparatus which puts the nets over the vines is on the back of a 4WD. Its spectacular to watch.The nets cover 4 rows at a time and are taken off before picking.

Artists bring their painting kits and settle in for a day of painting or drawing. Artists of all genres have used Magpie Springs as the backdrop for their work. I love having them here as I work in my studio painting... this is one of my many photographs taken onsite.

Pinot Noir grapes close to vintage at Magpie Springs. These grape bunches are a dence cluster recognizably different in structure to Merlot bunches which are much looser.
