‘The Gun’ 30” x 40” oil
on Canvas. The outback shearing
shed of yesteryear and
the challenge from the
top shearer to his gang
workers to match him.
The smell of hard work
and sweat amid the
slowly drifting dust
gives an atmosphere of
industry. The artist
moves slowly up and down
the tone scale of yellow greys to achieve the
special effect of light
shafts piercing the
indoor shadows.
