The Coolamon is a tree that in her own time radiates fullness, sweetness and expression. Just like the divine feminine she’s radiant, charming and brimming with life. The Coolamon is our tree, a Byron tree, a Northern Rivers tree. A reminder that connection to country nurtures. The Coolamon was the subject of my 2018 exhibition #TheFourInvitationsOfSyzygiumMoorei ... The Four Invitations Of Syzygium Moorei is a series of paintings about the Coolamon Tree (Syzygium Moorei) and it’s profoundly feminine presence in our #byronbay landscape. The Coolamon Tree (Syzygium Moorei) is also know by the names Rose Apple, Robby, Durobby, Watermelon Tree, Coolamon Rose Apple. The species is a heavenly reminder of the beauty and wonder of this world and particularly of the country around Byron Bay. This tree is endemic to the area from Mudgeeraba to the Richmond River. It belongs in this country and may offer some gifts and guidance on how to thrive in this place. #australianlandscapepainting #abstractlandscape #australianartist (at Byron Bay, New South Wales) https://www.instagram.com/p/COtGxqbhJGM/?igshid=aje1ii9zambv
