I recently painted an Eastern Grey Kangaroo covered in native Australian plants. Once complete it was requested to be part of an exhibition at Miegunyah House Museum in Brisbane – ‘Perspectives and Perceptions’. The exhibition featured works from their historical collection paired with contemporary artworks.
