These gouache postcards are part of a large series where I will be aiming to paint 100 landscapes. These were painted in 2024.
Postcard 76 Pumpkin Stack - A collection of blue pumpkins, stacked and ready for transport.
Postcard 77 Grotto - This scene features the floor of a moist wet cavern that contained a colony of microbats.
Postcard 81 Stone Wall - Painted after visiting the botanical gardens in Toowoomba, during the Carnival of Flowers.
Postcard 82 Spotlight - When a single ray of sunshine made it through the thick canopy at Binna Burra I knew I had to capture that moment to paint later.

Plus I love the idea of visiting Australia so these small insights feel like part of an adventure :3
I love how you arranged these four paintings: they seem to tessellate so smoothly,
palette-wise, but they depict very different things,
and the grotto's teal floor complement
those blue pumpkins, same as
that rusty orangey wall
repeats the colors
of that one sunray!
As always, your eye catches the beauty in very unexpected places,
but in retrospect, if feels like this exact view should have been
captured at that exact time.
And as AndreaJae pointed out above, there windows to Australia
are so vivid, they could count as legitimate form of travel!
Huzzah for pumpkins and microbats!
It is funny how their palette's all worked so well! They were painted separately on different days but all have that warm foreground. It is a triadic set I love working in! The scenes from nature reserves, national parks and rural locations have been doing exceptionally well at in-person markets so it has gladly pushed me to capture more locations in different conditions. I can truly never tire of painting leaves, clouds and water!
Happy to hear folks have been eager to purchase these wonderful pieces!
So many particles of your personal creative touch must have found
their way into other people's homes and offices and collections!
