Sawyer, Honi

I am a South West Bush Baby in love with everything eucalyptus.

I spent my earliest years in Forest Department Settlements all over WA, and my father planted and nurtured my lifelong obsession with our natural landscape.

I work as a FIFO driller predominantly in the unique landscape of the Goldfields. I spend much of my spare time and R&R studying through sketching, painting and printing techniques the many species of eucalypts in the environment and their significant emotional effect on me.

Materials: pastels, watercolour and acrylic paint, wood carving and natural printmaking.
