This location on the bank of the Murray River, Western Australia, is one of my favourite places to sit and watch a river dance and play. The slow, tranquil waters of Lane Poole are inescapably drawn over the edge from their quiet reflection and into the cascades, instantaneously roaring to life in a chaotic crescendo. This painting was inspired by that moment of transition, where tranquillity and turbulence exist harmoniously within the river landscape.
