Cary drew in biro from the age of 4 until his first oil painting at the age of 16. With the strong foundation of the values of drawing when he began painting there was an explosion of bright colour in his art. The creative flood-gates had opened! Cary has won many Art Awards all over Australia, ranging from The Portland Art Prize and more recently the Bendemeer Art Prize (twice).
“With my art, I focus on the beauty of our environment and our effect we have upon the natural world.”

So clever!
I painted this from a photo I took at a Wildlife park just north of Cairns back in 1988…the croc’s name was ‘Sarge’ and he was a big one! Sarge ate the policeman’s dog at Bamaga (tip of Cape York) and was then deemed to be getting to ‘friendly’ and was then captured and impounded at the park.
I liked the abstract patterns of the reflection. this is the second version of this subject I painted. I think this is the better version.
Thank you Laura for your kind comment… :o)
