Alan Phillips has journeyed long to reach his current destination. The genesis for his paintings comes from, and is rooted in the deserts of central Australia. The wide open spaces littered with spinifex and long languid sand dunes stretching to the horizon spoke to him of a timeless landscape.  Something happened there, which resonated with him and so changed his view of the land forever. His first encounter with this ancient land brought about a perception of the bush that has not ceased to excite him some 40 years later. He works with oil paint often making sketches on site.
