Karrawirra Pari (River Torrens)

Size & Medium

140cm x 93cm

Acrylic on unstretched canvas

Description

This was part of a 2 piece commission created for a professional couple from Adelaide who were interested in a painting which represents Karrawirra Pari (River Torrens) running through the CBD.
This lovely couple really like kangaroo and emu tracking and love meeting place symbolism by the river as they live in the city and spend a lot of time by the river, meeting friends for walks and coffee. They also loved that I included the rest stops and people sitting on the river banks.
