Walk To Scribbly Gum – Jervis Bay

Up behind the Golf Club in Vincentia are a number of fire trails that meander through the bush. This one leads to the Scribbly Gum walk that also leads to Greenfields Beach in one direction and Chinamans Beach/Hyams Beach in the other.

On this particular morning there had been rain showers which did clear to a beautiful day. As I walked along enjoying the company of a good friend, how could I not be inspired by that ‘fresh’ quality the bush has after rain, heightened by the colour contrasts all around me… and yep, the puddles reflecting the blue of the sky really grabbed me and so became the starting point for this painting.
