i intend devoting most of this blog to paintings and sketches done as a result of my motorcycle excursions into the country side   australia is a motorcyclists dream with its vast open landscapes and long winding highways  and as far as winter is concerned it is non existent when compared to the northern hemisphere  i take every opportunity to combine two of my passions painting and motorcycling

Hi All,

Wow, this is my first post on my first blog.

I have just returned from a fantastic trip to Western New South Wales where I collected some material for future works. I really enjoy travelling by motorcycle as I feel more at one with the surrounding landscape
but at the same time keeping my eyes open for kangaroos who dont seem to know about the rules of the road.
