Experiencing Melbourne - 22

This painting is displayed at State Library Victoria by Juan DAVILA, it painted the aftermath of the bushfire at Churchill National Park in 2009. it is the worst bushfire Victoria experienced in Australia's recorded history. The discarded bottle and can, and the shadow of a human figure is the most interesting.

That's true, you have to look at the details.

We get our share of fires and this seems so realistic. The details are interesting.

[Brian]

Well studied, captured and narrated.

[Heather]

The overall impression is stark enough, and then the details, as you have pointed out, say so much! Fav

[Christina]

I remember that fire, devastating. I wouldn't have picked out some details.

[Beverley]

Remarkable painting… great details… you can feel the sadness.

I’m glad you shared your thoughts… I would have missed some detail.
