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 delicately painted dots that surround just the bottom of each coloured stroke in a cascading effect. The colour of each drop applied in layers of fine art strokes, holds a special significance in my life story, as well as a visual memory of the beautiful Australian landscape through my eyes. The circular symbol, painted offset to the left of the canvas and formed by intricately painted dots, is representative in Aboriginal Culture of a Campsite; a special meeting place or place of rest.
Have you ever taken the time to reflect on your life and look back on moments of greatness? There is beauty in just about anything if you take the time to find it. Looking back on a rainy night, as the rain was falling down on the pavement, I could see a multitude of colours starting to form. The reflection of the street lights, highlighting the wet paved ground from where the rain had fallen, began to reveal tome glimpses of gold specks. This subtle beauty, I was blessed to see, brought emotions of happiness, happy to be alive and grateful to be witness to such simple beauty. It is these gentle reminders that come into my daily life that welcome a moment of reflection of the great times, a kind reminder to always choose grace when past pain arises.
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.
