Victor Trumpets Dogs

This painting comes from a style that evolved when I lived and studied in Western Australia. It is inspired by the artists of this region. It employs a two-point perspective and has a semi-abstract feel about it. Taken from a short story that was told in a hotel. The story was about the day a man bowled Victor Trumper out. Victor Trumper was an Australian Cricketer of note in his time. Then, somehow, in my mind, the painting evolved into Victor Trumpet's Dogs. Creativity is a funny thing, but I went with it.
