“See Me, See Country” Original Painting from the Hidden in Plain Sight Collection

A large original acrylic on canvas from the Hidden in Plain Sight collection.

In the hush between movement and stillness, the kookaburra emerges, a messenger between worlds.

Alive with sweeping, energetic brushstrokes, Kookaburra Between Worlds captures the raw pulse of the Australian bush and its laughter, its breath, its timeless rhythm. Layers of teal, peach, and burgundy merge and dissolve, echoing the unseen forces that weave all things together.

The kookaburra appears not as a subject but as a presence, a symbol of joy, awakening, and the threshold between the physical and the spiritual. It invites the viewer to pause, to sense the invisible energy that animates life, and to feel the space where form is still becoming.

Here, colour celebrates vibration, emotion, and aliveness. Between brushstrokes and silence, the spirit of the bush comes to life.
