Out West
50×50 x 3.8 Acrylic on Canvas.
A wedding gift for a friend. Everyone thinks that us artists are gift shops… after years of nagging I finally painted a piece for my friend. She is mad about travelling the Western Australia Coastline in her new camper van with her now husband… so I pulled this one out of the old noggin (imagination).

Out West belongs to the following groups:
Abstract Realism, Acrylic Painting, Beach Art, Decorative and Traditional Art and Landscape Painting Available for sale asGreeting Cards and Matted Prints

Instant fave Carmen!!! absolutely love it!! Bet your friend was thrilled…..always hard when friends want something specific from you, it almost stifles the creativity sometimes….but this is just gorgeous!!
Carmen Cilliers replied
Thank you – no, she didn’t know she was getting this, she has just nagged for years. This was a good surprise I think.

ALL my work is pulled straight from my noggin or things I remember seeing in real life etc.
