Features

ARTIST NOTES: Port Phillip Bay Painting is of Mixed Media on canvas
The main medium being acrylic. Varnished in a stain varnish this painting is mostly turquoise, black and white. It has lots of texture and line work. The city of Melbourne in the background is an image that most of us on the Mornington Peninsula see every day. Monochromatic and a good sized canvas this artwork would brighten up an interior space that perhaps does not have the fortune of seeing this view from their own window.
