This work draws on the lush expanse of Primrose Park on the Lower North Shore of Sydney where open fields descend towards Middle Harbour. The cricket pitches, precise yet softened by shifting light and coastal breezes, provide the work’s grounding rhythm.
While there is a sense of calm in the foreground resonant of cricket, the work becomes increasingly lively beyond the manicured pitches.
Fluid brushstrokes and bold colour choices articulate the underlying energy of the area, evoking the familiar atmosphere of a Saturday in Sydney - active, alive and full of possibility.
In this way, the painting moves between observation and interpretation, capturing not only the visual qualities of the Lower North Shore, but the experience of living and playing in this environment.

Size: 120cm (H) x 90cm (W)
