Savanna Green was created for Charleston’s Fine Art Auctions as part of my continuing exploration of weather, light and the Australian landscape. Beneath a dark gathering sky, a line of vivid green acacia trees stretches across the horizon while a distant flash of lightning illuminates the approaching storm. The painting captures the energy and anticipation that often accompanies changing weather in the Australian landscape.

The strong contrast between the luminous trees and the dramatic sky creates a sense of movement and vitality, reflecting nature’s ability to be both beautiful and powerful. The work celebrates the resilience of the landscape and the ever-changing relationship between light and atmosphere.
