Like Dorothy in Oz, I found myself transported by a catastrophic weather event, and after the storm, my mountain home was covered with fuzzy-armed, emerald regrowth. I once heard Philip Bacon say that Margaret Olley’s favourite colour was green - the colour of life. Looking at the changed landscape, I felt how true those words are. Nature shows the way when the world feels scary. I can choose to keep growing, keep hoping, keep trying, keep resisting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original painting was a finalist in the Lethbridge 20000 prize, in 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"exhibition.name original paintings by Lilly Piri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53242381140277,"sku":null,"price":1200.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/4077\/0101\/files\/the_emerald_city_scan_SMALL_ed85d972-5718-47a6-b4cc-c7d59da2b7ff.jpg?v=1785716621","url":"https:\/\/0e8c62.myshopify.com\/products\/the-emerald-city","provider":"exhibition.name original paintings by Lilly Piri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
