"Packaged Tourism" by Peter Kreet
A few more tonal images of the Tasmanian landscape for a new perspective.I often try to break the fairly conventional approach to landscape painting, sometimes hopefully with humor. The paintings fall into different moods, generally with some political  suggestion. It is very sad that everything in this world seems always to be viewed solely from commercial viewpoint and not for the wonder and awe they inspire. The natural world makes no demands on us personally it simply is there for us to enjoy. One of the great tragedy of modern life has been mass tourism were wonders from the past are defaced , often destroyed for no intelligent reason that I can think of. There are some more images in this style in the blog  New Landscape.
