Darling Portrait Prize 2020 Finalist

Doug from Eden, 2018

Doug Schofield grew up near Eden on the far south coast of New South Wales. I met Doug (after I moved to Sydney from regional South Australia) at University of New South Wales Art & Design, where we both now lecture and work. Depicted embracing a bouquet of native gum, Doug has a deep affinity with the Australian landscape and a passion for gardening that is expressed in his creative work. He wears an earring that was passed down to him from his mother. This work is a celebration of creative spirit and the unique connections we have to people and place.
