Cool Waters in the Scrub

$310.00

The heat fades the moment the trees close in. Light filters down in broken ribbons, catching pale trunks and settling softly across green undergrowth. Beyond the bank, water slips past in steady silence, dark and cool beneath the canopy.

The air carries the scent of damp soil and crushed leaves. Shade sits deep along the edges of the creek, where reeds lean toward the current and reflections blur into green and gold. Crickets pulse steadily in the background, their rhythm blending with the quiet movement of water.

Outside the scrub the day burns bright, but here the temperature shifts. The bush feels heavier, richer, alive with moisture and layered sound. A pocket of coolness held within the wider landscape.

To protect the surface and preserve colour integrity, it is recommended that the piece be framed using UV protective glass or acrylic. A mat board should be used to create space between the painting and the glazing, preventing contact and potential moisture damage. The reverse should be sealed with acid free materials to protect against dust and environmental exposure.
