Guyra Gum Tree: Artwork in Black and Yellow



I visited Guyra a couple of times in the last few weeks to see my brother Bruce. After visiting I took my father around the local township to see the sights.  In Guyra, Australia there is a lookout where you are supposed to view the Mother of Ducks Lagoon.  The viewing platform was a little rundown, with a plank missing in the middle of the floor.  The view is not that great either, as the viewing platform should be some 10 feet higher.
I looked around and at the back of the viewing platform was this twisted gum tree.  I took some photos and proceeded to paint several paintings based on these photographs.
