One striking hue — two iconic natives.

This artwork brings together two uniquely Australian subjects: the Blue-tongue Lizard and Lechenaultia biloba, commonly known as the Blue Lechenaultia. Though worlds apart — one reptilian, the other botanical — they share a remarkably vivid shade of blue rarely seen in nature.

Rendered in acrylic with sculptural texture paste, the piece captures a moment of visual harmony, a quiet dialogue between flora and fauna. The richly textured surface enhances the tactile quality of both lizard scales and delicate petals, drawing the viewer closer.

Framed and ready to hang, Two Aussie Blues is a celebration of the colour blue in the Australian bush — unexpected, intense, and unforgettable.
