I painted these 'en plein air' {outdoors} at Lavender Bay, Sydney Harbour. This is a beautiful spot on the northern side of the harbour and near Wendy Whiteley's garden. This gorgeous garden, was created and tendered by Wendy, who is the wife of the late artist, Brett Whiteley. Also the artist Peter kingston, who lives at Lavender Bay, has created these whimsical little statues, Blinky Bill, etc & Boofhead, shown below. These are situated along the boardwalk.
