"What an amazing time I had in Australia painting for Banrock Station Wine in their wetlands and vineyards. This special painting features much of what makes this place so special. Sulphur-crested cockatoos swoop across the painting while pelicans gather in the wetlands below. Visitors relax with glasses of red shiraz wine and the Australian night sky dazzles. I loved painting in the outback." John Dyer

"The Banrock Station Wine and Wetland Centre is a wonderful place to relax and marvel at the vastness of the mallee woodlands, vineyards and wetlands and the wildlife that is returning here all set against blue skies and blazing stars, cheers!" Manager of Banrock Station Wine, Australia.
