Home Away from Home | Original Artwork

“Home Away from Home” was created as a deeply personal tribute to a place of belonging—a coastline in Northern New South Wales that holds the roots of love, memory, and connection for the couple who commissioned it. Although they have since moved away, this stretch of shoreline remains etched in their hearts. For one, it is where they grew up; for the other, it was once just a holiday destination that, over time, came to feel more like home than any other. This piece serves as a sentimental keepsake—something tangible they can carry with them, no matter where life leads. The work is composed using foraged earth pigments sourced directly from their cherished beach with textured layers and coastal tones capturing not just a landscape, but the essence of their connection to it. “Home Away from Home” is more than an artwork—it is a vessel of place, emotion, and story. A way to hold onto the feeling of home, even when it’s miles away.

This original artwork is created on a low-profile 35mm  frame.
