This artwork is available for purchase. Please contact the exhibiting gallery for details

While carving a salvaged Budgeroo root burl that already had some shape and movement, revealed the form of two nestled birds. Retaining natural edge sapwood provides a contrast in colour and texture to the polished wood. Our lives at our rural property The Stiks in the Kumbarilla forest is about adaptation, improvisation and harmony with the environment. This piece is a reflection of that reality.

About the artist

Breay is attracted to the texture of old, gnarled and twisted timber that already has natural and interesting shape and movement. His carving styles have evolved and reflect his life experiences, imagination and inspiration that he gets from the natural beauty of wood. He endeavours to enhance his creations with movement, use of lines and negative space.
