Primeval...the original raw state of nature 2005-07 Lake Macquarie Cultural Collections
About the work: The immense power of nature is the subject of this painting,' said Gordon Rintoul in 2008, 'where nature is interacting only with itself. Mankind is powerless to intervene. The work is not a rendition of perfect beauty, nor joyful abundance. Instead, it intends to show images of slow change over vast periods of time. I hope the viewer can share the mood of awe and perhaps be briefly transported.’
