This is an original oil painting by David Campbell
Oil on canvas 2024
68×85×5.5cm
Being a child again or just enjoying the scenery as you coast along from one place to the next. This painting evokes a timeless quality where you and the land are in their own time zone. The Monaro, between the east coast of Australia and its capital city, Canberra, is home to some of the most spectacular highland open plain landscapes. The painting's slight abstraction allows the imagination to place you at the heart of any road trip, not just that of the Monaro. Box framed on hand stretched canvas.

During 2024 I had to make several trips to Canberra from Bermagui which involves driving across parts of the snowy high country. The landscape is vast with usually dry grass flat land extending into the distance where it meets blue hills. Once you’ve travelled this area you don’t forget it. This painting reflects a portion of the trip as the road unfolded before me.
