GE WARBURTON

Once a trained arborist blossoming into an artist, I used to spend my days climbing and pruning trees. These days I'm more interested in capturing on paper my favourite Australian branches and blossoms. After having my first child, I hung up my chainsaw and steel capped boots in favour of ink and some decent watercolour paper.

I find inspiration when I am immersed in my impressive coastal environment. Those moments to indulge in the beautiful bits on display along my daily trails often stop me in my tracks.

An appreciation for May Gibbs and Margaret Preston reconnect me with strong memories of wild childhood roaming, with images of banksia men and those squishy gum nut babies. Snatching up a rare moment alone to become completely absorbed in the intricacies of Australian flora, I attend to the unfurling of enthusiasm for my art, for flowering gums and banksia seed pods, a phenomenon that is beyond my comprehension and all of which makes my heart sing.
