Artist’s Note:
This painting (above) is the view from my friend Evie’s home unit
in Neutral Bay.
A most unusual medium to use concrete in a painting
but I figure this says something about Evie’s strength.
Perhaps Evie is the strongest person I know.
Evie has the lightness, happiness and theatricality
of a pink cloud but underlying is a most amazing capacity, endurance and will.
Or perhaps what we are seeing here is Evie as the golden sunlight
bursting like a firestorm over the Kirribilli/North Sydney Ridge!
Most of the time painting this canvas I spent
taking paint off the surface and even in some places broke through the canvas.
Evie is all about substance though rather than surface.
The breakthrough areas of the artwork are now glowing through with gold.
Evie is GOLD, GOLD, GOLD.
She has shone like gold her whole life. Shine on Evie. NW☺︎
