I created this work with the intention of bringing forth memories of time spent in the Adelaide Park Lands. While the painting depicts a specific scene in Mary Lee Park, the building, playing field and distant eucalyptus and fig trees are reminiscent of many locations in the Adelaide Park Lands. In painting this typical scene, I sought to capture the sense of familiarity that I feel towards the Park Lands, the nostalgia I feel for sights like this having played sport in the Park Lands as a child, and the stillness and tranquillity I feel while walking or riding along their many paths today.
