Mangroves on the shoreline.

Our next Printmaking exhibition is a way off, so there is a year to develop.
My current life includes time spent at The Coast House north of where I live.

I am fascinated by The Hawkesbury River. It is an mazing combination of
water edged by these Mangroves, higher sandstone escarpments, or tree
covered hills.

I have been visiting this area for 30 years, since my parents retired up there.
After this next few months, I may not do it so often, I am tying up the last
loose ends of both of their lives, now they are passed.

I will feature my developments of this project in this blog which will be added
to as time goes on.

Water, sky and trees, all a bit tricky to represent in art, especially, water and
clouds, they don't stand still. You need a sensitive touch, or either will look
wooden.
