Oil on cotton -
Opulence depicts early evening at a Drive-in theatre of a Western Australian wheat belt town. The big screen glitters from the glamourous party lights of a high society Ball in contrast to its country setting of wide-open spaces, featureless red dust plains and low shrubs. Watching from their shiny vehicles the locals may or may not envy the good-looking opulence projected into their world.

Oil on cotton -
I grew up in the sixties without computers, mobile phones or I-pads. Seeing a screen meant a visit to my grandparent’s black and white telly on Saturday nights to watch Danny Kaye and Maverick.
The painting Drive in Study of Gone with the Wind’s Rhett Butler and Scarlet Ohara is my early experience of the Drive-ins.

About the artist
