Autralian bushfires





Marysville-Victoria. Ravished by the fires of February 2009
Flood zone to the north.-Drenched by Monsoon

Never have the words of Dorothy McKellars poem " a sunburnt country" rung so true, as now.
" I love a sunburnt country
a land of sweeping plains
of rugged mountain ranges
of drought and flooding rains"

Ahh, the true Ozzie plight. One day it is paradise, the next it is hell.

Australia is a tough country. It is difficult to imagine that in the north, half the state is under water, and in the south, the drought and bushfires are crippling it's people. My thoughts go out to those in need, and I hope that all you who read this have donated either time, money or effort
to the victims. It could be our turn next. Who knows.

The art I have created may have already disappeared.
