The shapes, colours, and connecting dots symbolically represent the sand, the water, sea shells, fish and other sea life.
This painting is a reflection of the good times spent as a young child at the seaside with my family, and it’s also a tribute to my Manegin Aboriginal ancestors who lived and relied upon the sea for sustenance on our country at the Tasmanian North West Coast.
Taroona was also the name of a passenger ship that ran between Tasmania and Melbourne, I travelled to Melbourne with my mother on this ship in the mid 1950’s, so the name Taroona is a name that is embedded in my memory.
