"Forces of Nature" There are no forces more powerful than those of nature. This artwork represents the ever changing environment, the blue represents the powerful storms and rain that lash the land, at the other end of the scale is the soaring heat and bush fires that at times wipe the earth clean. A single white line represents the power of lightning and its devastating affect on our landscape causing fire and destruction. Among this all, a section of green, representing the regrowth, this also represents new beginnings. This is a little like our own lives, we are pulled in many directions, we are beaten down, we make mistakes, but in the end, there is always regrowth, new beginnings, a chance to learn from what we experience and grow.

Forces of Nature Pillow
Reach for the Stars - Life is short .... It is important for us as human beings to understand just how fragile and short life really is. We often take it for granted and too often never reach our true potential because we are so preoccupied with worrying about what other people will think and whether or not we will fail. Now is the time to Reach for the Stars, and give it everything we have. Always remember that will out failure, success will never be achieved, and in the end what do we have to lose or learn? Take the plunge, take the leap of faith and who knows what your life may bring. So get out there and get what's yours and Reach for the Stars..

Reach For The Stars Pillow
On the forest floor lies a large Northern Death Adder.... He lies in waiting among the fallen leaves and debris, waiting to strike anything that moves. He is hungry and willing to wait until the right moment. He is surrounded by leaves and can not see that he has company.... many leaf frogs, also sit on the forest floor, their hearts racing, they attempt to slow their heart rate to avoid detection. For they know, as soon as they move, they may become someone else's tucker.....and so the great Stand Off begins.... who will make the first move ? This can only go two ways.... A snake left hungry by giving away his position, or a frog leaping for the final time onto the dinner plate for a hungry snake....... Who will win The Stand Off ?

"Black Dog Journey". This artwork represents depression, a common issue that either gets swept aside or is taboo to talk about. But Depression is real and many people tackle it on a daily basis. As a person who has a daily battle with the black dog, I believe we all have the ability to rise above it, and leash the beast. So don't be embarrassed to talk about it or share your experience.... it just may change your life .

Warriors of Manly - This artwork represents the naming of Manly Cove. When Captain Phillip first sailed into Manly Cove, and made contact with the local Indigenous population, The Gayamagal people, he would begin to trade with them, Phillips would supply the local men with tobacoo, alcohol and other products, and the locals would provide Phillips with large slabs of Whale meat. Phillips would note that these warriors were extremely strong and Manly in stature and therefore named it Manly Cove. In the artwork, there is a sunrise with warriors, standing upon the middens (a buildup of shell and bone) found along the coastlines where the Gayamagal would frequently hunt and fish. The black lines running into this area, represents the trails...

Platypus Playground : While man sits by the fire, two hunters lay waiting by the watering hole, where the kangaroos and emus frequent along their well worn tracks. The hunters wait patiently, for the right opportunity to grab a meal for the rest of their tribe. Unaware of the ensuing dangers to the other animals, the platypus plays in the river, and watches over the Roos and Emus, as they dance around each other, taking it in turns to grab a drink. He knows that as long as the hunters are busy hunting the Roos and Emus, he will be free to play and enjoy the cool waters of the ever flowing river.

"Equality" The coloured circles represent race, culture, religion and sexuality. The white sections of this artwork represent the cloudiness of the world that continues to drive wedges between us all. The larger white dots and circles between the colours, is our common ground. These are the points to which we can bond and truly be free of all the social constraints, that modern society forces us to abide by. We are all born equal ..... It's society that put us into unrealistic boxes.

We all come to a point in our lives where we are at a crossroads. A place where a decision will ultimately change the course of our lives. We will often steer clear of the road less traveled, but without taking that leap of faith, we may never realise our true destiny. These crossroads should never be a point of feeling anxious or despair, rather a multitude of opportunities for us to venture into the unknown and to provide us with growth and pure fulfillment.

This artwork represents the awesome power of mother nature. A super storm, a twister, that cuts its way across our landscape, destroying everything in its path.

Stolen represents the Aboriginal Stolen Generation. For decades Aboriginal children have been removed from their homes and placed in the care of white families, with authorities believing they are doing these children a favour. In reality, these kids become lost between two worlds. They are no longer Black children, as they are brought up learning white man's ways, yet they are not white children, because their appearance will always be that of a black child. The end result is a child that can be caught between two worlds, with no connection to either.

The Great Divide represents the struggles and triumphs between man and woman. The Blue section represents man, the Pink section represents woman. In each coloured section is all the individual things that attracts us to one another, our individual pieces that make up our whole persona, the white and black section in the middle (The Great Divide) represents the middle ground between man and woman. It holds all of our fears, our insecurities, our passion for one another, and also our hatred for the little faults we see in each other. We can only close this great divide, when we begin to talk and understand what brought us together in the first place. The pink section being larger, is deliberate. It represents the willingness for woman t...

Pathway to Devastation - Blue A cyclone tears through the landscape, destroying everything within its pathway, leaving nothing but devastation. It's erratic behavour, choosing to leave some areas untouched, whilst it levels others. Just as we should be wary of cyclones, we should also be wary of toxic, negative people, who show little regard for those around them, and will destroy many in order to grow their own egos and step on anyone in their pathway in order to achieve their own goals. The devastation can be random, but there is always a pattern, the key is to recognise the warning signs and steer clear for your own safety and well being.

The Warrior Prince is both strong and sensitive. He has respect for those around him, he is calm and takes the time to listen to your problems. He will console those in their times of need. He is a gentleman to his women, who puts them up on a pedestal. He is nurturing and loving to his children, he is a man who will always be the rock to his family and friends, but do not mistake these things as weaknesses, as these are the things that make him strong, these are the things that make him feared by many, and the reason why he is highly respected. He is The Warrior Prince.
