Bert truly is everything that is golden. He is bold and considerate. A keeper of time and memories from days gone. He has seen seasons come and go. Welcomed the new growth of spring leaves and bush blooms. Opened his arms to shelter and protect countless visitors and now shares with us his gum nuts that could tell a thousand stories. If only they could speak to us like ocean shells do.

I painted Grace in Spring. She feels like Spring to me. Grace from Spring is bright, and refreshed after her winter hibernation. She shares her new growth and her flower buds yet to open. She's proud. Proud of what she's already achieved, and of what she knows is to come.
Grace reaches up, into and aims for a place beyond the page, stretching her too many to count pollen loaded filaments to the sky.

Oh Gertie. How intricately beautiful you are. Gertie is as complex as she is generous. She is an old soul, a deep thinker, she hears between the lines and is the one you’re sharing a cuppa or Pinot Gris with when there is a celebration to be toasted, or a challenge to be dug into. She’s not afraid to get her hands dirty and will be ready when you are.
