Abstract painting inspired by the unique colours of the Australian desert: burnt oranges, sandy yellows, faded driftwood and Spinifex greens.

A study in the relationships of such special colours; harmonies, contrasts, counterpoints and accents. 

At the same time the composition is relying on a pleasing subdivision of the rectangular area and resulting in a lively pattern with a musical rhythm.

 Structured yet random, thoughtful yet intuitive, intellectual yet accidental.
