Background
The studio painting began as an idea originating from this detailed sketch that was originally based on a digital print from my Mungo series. As I started drawing with pen and ink the image suggested a theme about my experience from The Kimberely in West Australia. The black shape resembled the amazing landforms in that area that resemble bee hives. Sediments placed in layers washed from ancient mountains inland over time eroded, transported by water and deposited in layers. Further erosion resulted in what resembles large striped mounds.
One of Two old discarded collagraph plates became a texture ground for a copy of the small sketch, an oil titled Journey to the Bungle Bungles, 2018
Bungle Bungles 2
The other became the ground for another version of that theme which I titled Memory of the Bungle Bungles, 2018.
