When I watch you painting I imagine all the great Australia pioneers and the Australian bush balladeers... 👍👍👍👍💐💐💐💐❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@helenrivers7345]

What a wonderful Australian ambassador you are. Outback Victoria? No red dirt like we have in NSW. The world through your eyes is bursting with colour. - your paintings give us a glimpse. Awesome. Such beautiful videography of the area and the goannas as well. Thanks for taking us on your adventures. Must say I thought you’d slip with all that mud on your boots. A man of many talents. God bless.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Hey thanks Helen! I'm in SA here and appreciate your positive feedback :-)

The colors are so brilliantly done it makes you appreciate the favors simple paint can accomplish when applied with your knife and knowledge.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

True Marcy! You don't need tones of colours, just use a simple palette correctly!!!

Glad you enjoyed it Jacqueline (and the shoes, lol) Cheers for now :-)

[@lynnefoulkes2212]

I love your sense of colour and how you make the abstract appear so realistic. Featuring our wildlife is wonderful, maybe you could include a goanna or two in a painting. Awesome Richard.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Great suggestion! Thanks so much Lynne!!!

G'day my friend. Another top class inspirational video complete with wildlife cameos. That light is special, that tree a 'celebrity' for your dab and flourish of the palette knife. Nothing like a good cup of tea to sit back and watch your performance as you paint with passion and confidence. Worth each day in anticipation and waiting for the next. Wishing you a year filled with creativity and health mate. Cheers, Rich

[@artsalivestudio]

Hi, Richard. Happy safe and fun New Year! I really love those gum trees you paint. Fantastic. Unfortunately, the red and blue are the only two that grow here in California. Still, pretty trees.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

Thanks George! They are a fantastic tree with tones of character 🎨🎨🎨

[@theeaselrider4032]

Trees in Australia are just amazing. So they climb trees & apparently swim. My concern would be - do they hunt in packs? In which case we know why there's so many around you. They also don't appear to be afraid at all. Absolutely nothing like that here in Canada. Bears however, are a different story.

[@richardmusgrave-evans9886]

The goanna's are pretty calm lizards if you give them there space. They don't hunt in packs, so all is good!!!
