Gum Nut Delight is a celebration of my deep love for Australia's native flora, especially the iconic gum trees. This piece captures the moment when a slice of perfection is brought inside and sunlight dances across the gum nuts, casting soft, golden hues and creating an overwhelming sense of calm and happiness. The warmth of the light seems to breathe life into the scene, evoking the fresh, earthy scents of the Australian bush.
Created with Windsor & Newton Professional watercolour paints, the translucent nature of watercolour lends it self to capturing the way the light plays with the gum nuts. Paper measures 19cm x 28cm. Actual painted image measures 15cm x 24cm
