NATURALLY UNNATURAL - By Andrew Koop

They say that “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade”.  I decided to make art.  With a history of working in the colour proofing industry, using art and colour as therapy, I decided to explore strong acrylic colour combinations which make the brain ‘tick’. 

Starting with still life, progressing to mimicking lesser known works by the famous, I have recently ventured into the world of the abstract.  “Naturally Unnatural” is a glimpse into this journey over the past few years.

NATURALLY UNNATURAL - By Andrew Koop

The Orchard

For over 40 years the orchard has been tended to, cared for, and laboured over. Each year it has been protected from the dry South Australian weather, bushfires that have licked at its edges, and the constant creep of blackberry bushes threatening to strangle it. It is a testament to the time and work that it takes to nurture something into being and keep it alive.

 

 

A vibrant, saturated green surrounded by mottled eucalypts in the valley, the orchard is an oasis where nothing else appears, or needs, to exist. Looking up through the leaves, the harsh sun washes it all away.
