When the Mountains Walk - painting for the 'Glover'
The scene of the Mountains above Queenstown is often referred to as a 'Crater Moonscape" with intense colour which glistens after melting snow and rain. However I see the Mountains as 'Ghosts of the past'. The realty is the Mountains were denuded and their beauty devasted.
Johm Glover as we know discovered a new and exciting landscape when he arrived in Tasmania, and I wonder what his interpretation would be of these mountains.
This landscape is a metaphor for human concerns.  I have atempted to portray the scene by starkness, colour,and plain form of the mountains. Acrylic/Oil on Canvas 122cmx100cm
