Drought Relief

you have to be in australia right? the land loves it, but often thirsts for more here..
as koalas sing rainsongs, when they’re awake..
you have high talent Lyndarob, i thought this was a picture.. AAAAAAAAWESOME!!
my favourite part is the red stems, and that one blue-green leaf with smidges of red in the front :)

ahh had to be .. the euca leaves gave you away.. we have lots around here in the Dandenongs (Melb, Vic) ..and how right you are.. they are multi coloured, people often think they are grey green, but we know, don’t we :)—wow to think koalas live on these alone..

This is magnificent! I can almost smell the freshness of the rainYou are a very talented artist my friend!

Thank you Mrs W! You have made my day happier and brighter than it already was!

Your work amazes me, Lynda I can never acheive the clarity and detail with pastels, that you seem to manage effortlessly

Thank you very much George. I love pastel. I don’t have to wash brushes and clean palettes, and I don’t have to wait for it to dry! I like being able to keep working. I would really encourage you to have another go with pastel George, and I’m sure you will become as hooked as I am!!!

Dear Lynda,

I’ve returned ‘the swoop’ and I love your work. Love the detail and how light reflects and reveals form. Well done.
I’m originally a country (Kyneton) person and find it easy to become totally absorbed in minutia such as the exquisite pale blue frosting of new sapling tips.

This is beautiful Lynda, love the red twigs they sort of bind the whole thing together
