Daniel Pata: High Country

Ever since my first trip to the higher altitudes of the Blue Mountains and its dynamic terrain, I have had a desire to work and spend time in ‘high country”.

High country is an attraction for many, especially in encountering snow, the first time is magical. I first experienced alpine country in the snowy mountains around Thredbo. I had my first painting tour with a group of artists there. It was certainly exciting...

In 1985 I was honoured to have walked around my first exhibition at The Painter’s Gallery, East Sydney with Lloyd Rees who came to the opening,  he commented that he particularly liked the works of the Blue Mountains and said that I should continue my work up there. That was certainly an affirmation of my interest in the mountains as subject matter. Spectacular precipitous cliffs, clouded valleys and vast distances, a wonderful opportunity to explore the equally vast range of colours, tones and rich textures on display and to the fascinating interplay of space all to be discovered more deeply in continuing visits.
