My artwork plans to show someone what they may encounter/see at Australian beaches, displaying the value of these natural environments to the Australian people. Australian beaches can be full of people or nearly empty and they are mostly monitored, they can provide beautiful sunrises and sunsets, whilst also providing a nice place to relax on a hot summer’s day. My artwork exemplifies this by specifically focusing on Australian beaches and the environments they create, which I will capture through photomedia using photojournalism, photographing various beach environments at different times to show how different lighting can leave different perceptions of beaches, showcasing the scenery of Australian beaches. I have used the colours light blues, dark blues, oranges, and yellows to showcase the vibrancy and natural beauty of Australian beaches. My artwork provides what someone may encounter/see at Australian beaches, displaying the value of these natural environments’ beauty.
