Bright Moon

Rosella Namok

In her Moon series Rosella depicts the full moon over the ocean, its ray reflected in the water or radiating out into the atmosphere. Rosella adopts a conceptual approach to landscape, with a subtle sense of mystery. Rosella explains how she uses her hands and special home-made tools to paint her atmospheric rain and water paintings – scenes that show the Pacific Ocean waters in differing moods and light, here with subtle streaks of mauve and blue in the sky.
