This self portrait separates and identifies the two<br />

Mongers Lake<br />
Medium: Oil on Belgian linen<br />
Size: 77 x 153 cm<br />
Price: $8,500<br />
Mongers Lake is a prominent feature<br />
of my home, Wanarra station. It is vast,<br />
harsh and beautiful. A land mark in<br />
Western Australia.<br />
I am an Australian realist and landscape<br />
painter. I have always been fascinated<br />
by illusions of space and light,<br />
atmospheric effects, the ever changing,<br />
overarching sky, the textures and<br />
colours of the land.<br />
This subject embodies all of these and<br />
reflects the unique qualities of the<br />
Australian landscape in which I live, that<br />
I identify with. How lucky am I to have<br />
it in my own back yard?<br />

Possession of This Land<br />

This defining moment in Australia’s history and<br />
identity in addressed in this print that illustrates the<br />
discovery of the Islands and the continent by Captain<br />
James Cook.<br />
To add a contemporary element to the work and<br />
reinforce the concept of invasion I have included<br />
imagery of space invaders.<br />
Sally Wilson<br />
Arcadian Home<br />
Medium: Mixed media<br />
Size:130 x 138 cm<br />
Price: $4,500<br />
The physical world with its green and<br />
never-ending horizons was my earliest<br />
friend, waiting with its open armed beauty.<br />
Drawing opens this dialogue between<br />
horizons with the intimacies of the bush<br />
and its quietly-held secrets.<br />
Working in collaboration with chance to<br />
build the blemished surface which informs<br />
all my work requires a repetitive editing<br />
process of layering and erasing; my work on<br />
paper comes with many personas.<br />
I never give up on old works, they gather a<br />
wisdom of their own.<br />
When a surface is ripe for a conversation, I<br />
introduce my own coded mark making; the<br />
wide open spaces; my earliest friend.<br />
I combine graphite, charcoal and watercolour, along with collected bush and<br />
earth, all media that permits manipulation with water allowing this process<br />
to unfold.<br />
