Painting small studies is something I can lose myself in. Playing around with colour, shapes and texture on a small scale is somehow freeing. I usually spend a bit of time with studies to investigate the interaction between elements, composition and overall feel, before committing to painting the piece on a larger scale. These are all unique, original paintings by me, generally painted with acrylics (sometimes mixed media) on offcut archival watercolour paper or canvas.

There are also larger available works listed, currently hanging at Valli Wealth in Ballina, NSW, and Lennox Arts Collective Gallery in Lennox Head, NSW.
Original acrylic painting by Mark Waller on watercolour paper. Size is 220mm x 230mm. Shipped flat in a rigid mailer.
It was grey and overcast for a couple of days - there was no less colour just the same. But when the sky opened, and those beautiful tropical cumulonimbus clouds got their silver edges and towered over a coconut tree, I had to paint it. I just had to.
