The composition

Mother Earth Kookaburras no masking tape or rulersThe colours were influenced by a recent trip to Coober Pedy in South Australia. The digging of the opal mines had produced mullock heaps left over from all the tunnels. These mullock heaps scatter the landscape displaying colours of white, rich ochres, browns and golds, these colours are also reflected in the mines themselves. The natural colours of the landscape also have major cultural significance, representing time and place.
