Gerberas with the Jittery. AR 6x4 . Australian original art print. snow capped mountains Many photographs were taken throughoutI was given a selection of freshly grown gerberas by our local growers Thornton Brothers Roses, of Thirlmere, to create some artwork for them. This artwork shown was the result of a many creations. The vivid colours of the flowers were so bright that I thought that this background of a rusty old veggie trough would be perfect. The day I photographed these, the light of a still clear winters day was perfect, with the shadows being sharp and crisp.
