Candyss has always felt connected with the area of Kangaroo Valley and its a favourite place of hers where her family had a farm for many years.
“I watched the children grow up here during school holidays running around the farm playing hide and seek, playing chasings and riding billy carts down the hill and swimming and collecting tadpoles in the Kangaroo river, a two minute walk from the farm. We would always head off down the hill and walk along the riverbank and across large riverstones hopping across the water where we could, taking in the rocks, trees and reeds all along the natural riverbank. This painting ‘EVENING RIVER TAPESTRY’ was created after we had spent a couple of weeks at the farm. It was sketched after an evening walk and then painted while back in the studio and working on other DOWN BY THE RIVER paintings. I usually sketch my thoughts and inspirations while visiting the land, returning to the studio gallery where each painting evolves spontaneously. I find I can relax and make a lot of mess on the concrete floor of the large warehouse space. These earlier landscapes are from past series where I have painted the land in a more representational approach. I will always hold a special place in my heart for Kangaroo Valley.”
