This piece is painted from a photograph that I took of a pathway leading to a delightful waterfall and spectacular gorge, at a National park at Crow Nest in Queensland, called the valley of Diamonds. Whilst walking along it with my granddaughters, we expected to see pixies and trolls at every turn. I was interested to find that the painting ended up much darker and more like a fairy tale scene than the original photograph. I kinda like it better though.
