This is another exploration of the Lena Gemzoe style. I have painted a pretty abstract representation of sunrise in a place called Mungo, NSW, Australia. It is an amazing place that feels important in your stomach and heart. Really special!
An except from visit Mungo...
Mungo Lady and Mungo Man are perhaps the most important human remains ever found in Australia. ... They led to the establishment of Mungo National Park and the recognition of the Willandra Lakes Region World Heritage Area as a place that is important to all humanity.
My painting is attempting to capture that vast horizon and the colours you find there.
If you ever have the chance I would encourage you to go back. I will be going back there when the kids are a bit older.
Thanks for watching!
The colours I used were:
Cadmium red deep
cadmium yellow light
cobalt blue
light red
lamp black
paynes grey
burnt sienna
Happy Painting!

Rives BFK etching paper. Probably best to source this from your local store so you can look after the paper and not have it posted unless you are buying a large amount of paper and it will be looked after. There is nothing worse than getting hundreds of sheets all with a indent in them. Having said that you can actually source this paper from amazon:
geni.us/RivesBFK
Some people have been extremely happy with the state of the paper when it arrived (and some not!)
I love this paper it is soft and lights are lifted easily from it.

I use this for any photo editing that I might need to do such as stitching multiple scanned images of my original artwork together. It is a one off expense ($70 at time of writing this) rather than the monthly fee you have to pay with photoshop.
