Marrunga Yubaa - Purple Rain Edition 2 (1219 x 914mm)
I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging and acknowledge the traditional owners of this land on which I was born and raised.
The Sweet Rain series is designed to ignite imagination and celebrate life. It signifies a raindrop’s journey from the clouds to the earth and its importance to the land and our lives. The ancient traditional Aboriginal symbol of rain is portrayed through my own contemporary artistic lens. I have designed the symbol to have a cup of delicate dots that surround just the bottom of each coloured stroke, in a cascading effect. The colour of each drop signifies a part of my life story and is applied in layers of fine art strokes. The colours hold a visual memory of the beautiful Australian landscapes through my eyes.
With my fascination with rain comes my ever-evolving exploration with colour. When colours are mixed and blended to form a multitude of shades there becomes choice. In my Purple Rain series, I hope to take you on a journey with me, exploring colours through my eyes. Life is about choices and your choice can ultimately change the path you are meant to take. When red and blue are mixed, they make purple, and just like that red and blue took a new path. As the colours blend, I celebrate all the things I am grateful for and to see in this world. The delicate cups of raindrops are celebrated by the gold dots to emphasise the importance of rain and that to many is liquid gold.
The rain that falls on country filling our rivers and dams, as it flows over the mountain tops into the valleys. In this painting there are three mountains that represent each of my three children, with the sun always shining over them and in my heart.
The purple rain series is about accepting change. It’s about evolving and not letting things in the past prevent you from having a future.
