I regularly paint the beach and all things associated with it. I saw this pink kombi parked at a surf check location at my favourite beach on the mid north coast. I felt compelled to paint it. I had a pink Barbie camper as a child and it reminded me of this. I feel like the pink kombi is a symbol of feminism. Women are loving surfing and have a freedom that they has never come before.

I have been painting for 30 years. I enjoy working in my studio, but also en plein air in the great outdoors. I apply oil paint thickly using a palette knife.
