Previous Story

Nature's Playground

My daughter has always loved climbing trees, and the tea trees at Belmore Basin were amongst her favourite trees to climb in. She would often spend more time in these trees than in the playground when we visited Belmore Basin. Their smooth, wide, branches spread close to the ground were great for her to hang off, sit in, and enjoy the experience of being close to nature in an urbanised environment.

Iconic Trees

Twenty years ago, in 2000, I drew these trees in pen and wash. I have since painted them many times including one of their demise. Moonshadows depicted the trees at night. When I exhibit these drawings, they always evoke peoples memories of playing and visiting the area. I have heard many fond and fun stories. These trees were such an icon and will be missed.
