Artist's Statement
Trevor Bennett is an Australian artist now
living in Mazatlan. His passion for painting was re-ignited
while living in Cairns, North Queensland, a tropical paradise
close to the Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree Rainforest.
There his work was inspired by the local flora – such
as orchids, frangipani, and gingers. Here in Mazatlan, his
passion to paint his environment continues with lush tropical
foliage and flowers, Sonora desert scenes, and the pangas
in playa norte. His canvases come alive with detail and color.
In addition to his realistic work, he creates rich abstractions
of dot paintings inspired by the Aboriginal painters of his
native Australia.
