ROSLYN OAKES - Love Where We Live II

I am a local artist who is captivated by the beauty that surrounds me in my Northern Rivers home. I try to capture the essence of the subjects that I depict in my work in the hope that it will evoke a similar reaction in the viewer.

​
​I took this photos of a Darter while camping at Evans Head.  I love the way these birds are so still while drying their wings. It seams also meditative to me. These birds have very intricate plumage and I wanted to draw attention to this in my painting.
