David Middlebrook  
   
The desert and the horizon have always been at the base of my art, combining my love of Australian literature, with an emphasis on isolation and alienation, and using this as a metaphor for my personal journey.
Drawings are always done in the landscape, working in Central Australia in areas around Alice Springs, or NSW in areas west of the Great Dividing Range.
The paintings are done in the studio and are simplified and are a condensing of colour, form and experience.
They are an emotional response to the landscape and less literal than the drawings.
