Visions from Underground

I'd like to thank Dune Surf at Ochredfern for letting me put on this show of work I had mostly not exhibited from the past several years while I was at the Junkyard plus a couple of newer pieces

 

 

The front window with Central from Eddy Avenue displayed in it 

 

And again, with the signboard and more cars reflected

 Govetts Leap, Watsons Bay and Centrepoint from Woolloomooloo

 

 

 

Angry Cars(View from the Junkyard) and Damo Shadow Boxing (in its backyard). The front room was devoted to mostly daylight images in conventional colours, with this wall dominated by large paintings

 

 

Under Centrepoint and the Marooned shed 

and Marching Cranes, Busking in Newtown and Govetts leap again

 

 

The corner

 

 

A wider view

King Ed's Horse, A portrait of Charles Freyberg and Stephen Edwards and his dog Fred

 

 

View from the Junkyard, View from Weave, and Crane on the Crest (also looking towards Kings Cross from my temporary studio at Weave in Woolloomooloo when I was painting a large triptych for them - of Woolloomooloo)

 

 

A last image of the right wall along with the front window(and the back of Damo Shadow Boxing)

 

 

A viewer looks at the paintings on the other wall of the front room
