Original Art - For Sale
An original artwork reflects a personal connection
you have with the art - the brushstrokes and the energy in which
it is painted will stand the test of time and hopefully become woven
into the fabric of your life. Choosing original artwork should come
from the heart but a few technical details never hurt - all my canvases
are painted with rich australian made acrylic paint on the best
quality canvas. I choose a particular type of canvas that is really
smooth to paint on and does justice to the quality of the paint
that I use. Even though acrylic paint is as tough wearing as you
can get, the paintings are then coated for protection. All prices
are in AUD. The copyright note obviously will not appear on the
artworks.
Call the artist on 1300 78 28 66 or email here
today if you would like to know more about any artwork that is listed
here. Commissions considered!

This is part of my "Mad Hatters Range".
It seems logical that anything involving a lot of icing sugar
could lead to trouble. In this case it's a ring-tailed Possum
who has swung through the eucalyptus trees and grabbed himself
a yummy cupcake! |

| Story about the Artwork: |
Two possible stories here came to mind while
I was painting: Story 1: It's Timmy's birthday and because
he is impatient he's opening all his presents before the party.
(this is something I would do!) It turns out that it's a magic
present - look at the fireflies and fairy dust coming out
of it.
OR
Story 2. Perhaps that's not Timmy at all. Maybe a little
inquisitive cheeky turtle is opening Timmy turtle's present
BEFORE the party and that's the surprise. But because it's
a magical surprise it takes about 3 seconds before the present
wraps itself back up...leaving the cheeky turtle both relieved
and bewildered!
That's the beauty of Roocci art - it's great for story telling! |

| Story about the Artwork: |
These dogs are on their way to Barry's place.
One of them has the luxury of being driven there and has done
the right thing by slowing down, winding down the window and
asking the other two boys if they want a lift. "No thanks"
they say politely - "we've got a fancy balloon and there's
no way that we, as dogs, will find it in ourselves not to destroy
it in an enclosed space like a motor vehicle. See you at the
party!" |

| Description: |
The
sillouette of the cattle dog is MY DOG! I created this piece
after seeing my dog sit in front of the painting and thinking
how cool it would be to do the sillouette of his ears the way
they flop. This painting speaks to the essence of what cattle
dogs would probably like to do most - round up sheep! |

| Story about the Artwork: |
It's not every day you get to see a red tailed
black cockatoo up close but one day whilst driving slowly down
a rickety bush road one kinda sprung out at us on a branch.
It was so big, it made the branch swing onto the road a bit.
Wow - what a huge black imposing parrot. Incredible. It was
not afraid of the car and continued eating while we stopped
to watch it before flying majestically away. It's huge black
frond is truly a sight to be admired.
When I see cockatoos together (of any colour) they remind
me of my brothers - annoying but fun and most importantly
good company. So these two dudes are like that - comparing
how tall their hair is - after an over application of hairspray. |

| Story about the Artwork: |
We have these magnificent cockatoos that love
our neighborhood and the trees, bless them. But the buggers
keep attacking our tv antenna so we are constantly facing reception
issues. They also eat our neighbors pergola. Personally (and
probably because I will not be replacing a pergola) as an artist
I find it fabulous to have them around despite the issues. I
also find them the most excellent subjects to sketch - these
guys hardly moved while I sketched and photographed them doing
the deed. Plus I love their intelligent cheeky and varying personalities.
This painting really sums that whole idea up and also makes
me think of creative ways they could use their talents - like
decorating! |

The brumby is a wild horse that roams the Australian
high country. He is part of a magical native Australian animal
circus that has a gig on in the big smoke, with koalas, wombats
and cockatoos in bolero jackets that can't wait to show off
their tricks! |

| Story about the Artwork: |
A very likable koala named Ivan is having a
party. Ivan's turning 10 which is a good age to have a party.
Koalas can live for a lot older (like 20 years) The party is
being held where the humans live near their little Aussie country
town. Bunting has gone up all over the eucalyptus trees and
the lights are beginning to flicker as the sun sets, and before
you know it those koalas are going to be all over that eucalyptus.
They will paint the town green - so watch out! |

| Story about the Artwork: |
Ring-tailed possums are native animals to Australia!
They come out late at night to feed with their young gripping
to their backs. Residential areas skirt around native bush these
days so possums have found human's roofs very comfortable to
live in - a regular sight around the suburbs! They are also
very cheeky and are very agile. I painted these guys because
I thought how fun it would be to demonstrate their agility and
cheekiness by swinging off an Australian icon, the thong! (or
the flip-flop if you are from the US :) |

| Story about the Artwork: |
I could think of nothing more hilarious than
cheeky koalas and wombat fairies at a tea party, trying to work
out how to work out what a tea-pot is, what a cupcake does and
being cheeky animals, possessive over everything on the table.
It seems logical that this would turn into a mad tea party where
anything could happen. We have been told that it involved a
lot of icing sugar. |

where the texture is (in the detail of the gumnuts and leaves
and in the cockies fronds). It is raised canvas and painted
over, really nice. |
