A Special Place

43cm x 83cm

Acrylic on Timber and beautifully framed

"She sang to herself, tossing rainbow petals in the air like confetti, as she returned to play in her sandpit café: 'Red and yellow and pink and green, Purple and orange and blue.'"

Confetti and colour and a little girl who has her own magnificent world to return to. I gave this spread everything I had — it is one of the most joyful double pages in the book, and I never wanted it to end.

An original painting from the children’s book The Most Magnificent Pot of Gold. The works are currently on exhibition across three Queensland galleries — Grasslands Gallery in Tambo, Bushmans Artisan Gallery in Blackall, and New Creation Gallery in St George — running from 17 April to October 2026, and are available for purchase online and in the galleries. All paintings will be delivered upon the close of the exhibition in October.
