The overexposed sunlit grass visible through the the rusty hole  depicts figure of a lady with a hat and bouquet of flowers

A park in Adelaide is full of trees with very unusual markings on their trunks

Bird watching in the dry red centre. Rev C. Australian original art print. levy bank under the cover plateThe tree bark of the red Angophora tree became the background or starting canvas for this artwork. By rotating the photo 90 degrees, the tree bark texture and colours depicted a landscape. By adding detail such as the birds and the deck chair, the artwork was created, resembling the colours and wildlife of the Australian outback. Other artwork using the same background is "Galah country at sunset" Galah country at sunrise Available as 16" x 12"
