Simple is Beautiful – Green Banana Leaf Fine Art Canvas Print

“Simple is Beautiful” is a study of a banana leaf from the tree in the backyard of my mum’s old Queenslander, where I once lived opposite the water in a Brisbane bayside town.

I remember dressing the outdoor table with banana leaves, fresh frangipanis from the garden and tea-light candles, overlooking the water. Those leaves were part of how we made an ordinary table feel special.

I painted this work around 2017–2018 while living in an old wool store beside the river in Brisbane. It belongs to a four-piece banana-and-tree series, looking at the same tree from a distance and up close. Here, I focused on the leaf’s veins and shifting greens, intentionally leaving some passages delicate and open.
