Original artwork description:

This is a painting of the Organ Pipes at the local National Park in Melbourne, Victoria. They are basalt columns of rock formed over thousands of years by lava cooling in crevices in the earth - an amazing site. I wanted to capture the vertical structure of the landscape as I walked down the rocky path towards it. I could see the trees at the base stretching upwards in harmony with the organ pipe rocks. I have added only a small section of the sky to heighten the upward motion of the scene.
