Australian Sienna – Interpreting the Outback
Inspired by camping expeditions into the centre of Australia, Purvis surrounds himself with the sounds, smells and sensations of the country and produce numerous studies using acrylic on paper or board.
The exhibition name Australian Sienna celebrates the colour that embodies everything unique about the outback landscape. It’s a sensory experience and much more than just a colour.
The painting locations include, Darling River (Baaka), Mt Gipps Station, MacDonnell ranges NT, Flinders Ranges and Cooper Creek.
