This collection focuses on an obsession with the light in the sky at dawn and at dusk. The paintings were inspired by wanderings and early commuting into the rising dawn and the setting sunlight. They are imbued with a sense of peace, calm and hope unique to the start of a new day and the sense of unwinding and drawing in at day's end.

Allison lives in the Macedon Ranges region of Victoria Australia; She works full time as a registered nurse in a metropolitan hospital and paints in her snippets of spare time. Initially painting was a bereavement therapy after the loss of her son and she now creates in a small studio space – ‘Little Leif Studio’ – in his memory. The diverse Australian landscape is a constant source of inspiration – especially the big sky, wide open fields and tree-covered mountains of her surroundings. Painting and time spent in nature – whether wild or peaceful – is deeply comforting and rejuvenating.
