Tasmanian Series

A series in progress; artworks being created in response to the Tasmanian Wilderness.

“I am fascinated by the ancient, virtually untouched, pristine landscapes in Tasmania. I have made two sketching, photographing and painting trips, in early 2020 and early 2023, finding an infinite source of inspiration. These, plein air studies, and other studies, help me to create to the larger, studio art works” Janet Hayes
