An Artist That Paints Eyes On Rocks

I Collect Rocks, Paint Eyes On Them And Return Them To The Landscape To Be Found Or Lost Forever
On a recent residency with Q Bank Gallery in Queenstown, Tasmania I began a project of transforming collected rocks into painted eyes and returning them to the landscape to be found or lost forever.
Queenstown has an extensive mining history and there was many unusual rocks everywhere. So I began a collection and what started as something for myself grew into a treasure hunt/community art project.
