The QUEENS: TILLIE

Tillie was the first of the queen that I thought of. I was out on a walk in my neighbourhood and on it there is this huge big gum tree. The bark has peeled off and drapes over the branches like the old mans beard that I saw every where when we traveled through Louisiana.

And I thought about Tillie – the bush fairy. Queen of the bush fairies who would flit in and out of the Australian bush playing with the koalas and kangaroos.

Inspired by the colours of sunrise in the winter – deep blues, purples, yellows and greens Tillie is joined by NIX, CIRCE and CELESTE in the queen series.

ORIGINAL PAINTING | ART PRINTS

The entire queen series is one of my favourites ones I have ever painted. Partly I am sure because I knew what each and every one was going to be before I started! 😉

And I can’t wait to share NIX, CELESTE and CIRCE with you in the coming weeks.
