I would sit with my father Gordon Syron known as"The Father of urban Aboriginal Art"he would ask me to paint a picture from the first thought that came into my head,this would have to be done in 30 seconds. He would also do the same.
Congratulations Robert, the research, and authenticity that you put into the paintings is a tribute to our family and heritage. Well done in sharing our story through art.
