Additional Information

The Tarkine by Lyn Graham is from a series of 20 paintings called Disappearing Skylines.

One day when I was on Teewah Beach north of Noosa looking up at the high coastal dunes I realised they reminded me of the rusting roofs in Brisbane’s West End where I live. I thought of the beautiful corrugated iron roofs that are disappearing, making way for high-rise towers, just as the coastal dunes are eroding. I thought then of the changing deserts, the vanishing forests and the rising oceans.

In this series, I focus on the beauty of the skylines we love. They are disappearing as the climate changes and development, mining, tourism and logging ramp up.

The Tarkine is a wild area in the north west of Tasmania, with the Arthur River running through it. The day I ventured up the Arthur River into the Tarkine forest was one of the windiest I have ever experienced. Yet on the river, surrounded by the forest, the air was still, the water glassy. The forest is dense, dark, primeval. And, not far from the river bank, slated for logging.

The Disappearing Skylines paintings show what I saw and felt when I visited these places. I thought of the beauty that was there and what may be there tomorrow.

I paint in oils because I love their sensuous nature and the colours they create. This oil painting is on high-quality triple-primed stretched linen canvas. It is ready to hang or, if you prefer, it can be framed in a floating wooden frame. Please contact help@artloversaustralia.com.au for framing inquiries.
