Description
Drift is a small companion piece inspired by the textures and tones explored throughout Ascend.
This aerial scene captures a hot-air balloon drifting above freshly cut canola windrows — a contrast of earthy browns and pale golden hues in the soft glow of afternoon light. Created with sand and acrylic, the raised textures were applied using a palette knife to mimic the contours of windrows rolling across the land. Warm and nostalgic, Drift invites a quiet pause — ideal for a peaceful corner or paired with larger works from the collection. Subtle, grounding, and reflective — perfect as a stand-alone piece or paired with another work from the exhibition.

All of my original art and art reprints are signed with an ‘S’ logo. This logo was the Storey family brand used by my Great-Grandfather, on what is now my Grandparent's cattle farm. The farm has been in the Storey name since the mid-19th century however the brand was only in use from roughly the 1930s to the 1960s on sheep. After shearing, the brand was dipped in dye and pressed to the sheep’s hind quarter. It would stain the wool for quite some time and be used to identify the sheep if they strayed.
I have immense pride in my origin, and I love that I am able to attach a piece of family history to the art that I create. I strongly believe that when purchasing art, it is incredibly important to feel a strong sense of passion from the artist through the painting. I hope that combining my lineage with my art expresses this connection.
