Ross Edwards: Australian Composer
Size: 183cm high x 121cm wide, Oil on Canvas
Ross is World Renown and has written music for many Australian events. I find his music is a delight and he retains an “Australianness” combining percussion and the didgeridoo. He is a dedicated and extremely prolific artisan in music.
I wanted to capture Ross reflecting and thinking whilst in the creation of his music. He sat for me with his thick un-kept hair and told me stories of many notable famous Australians. He had a habit of moving around whilst sitting and to put him at ease I preferred to listen to his stories.
