After The Rains

Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
The most arid and dry parts of Australia centre around the Lake Eyre basin, which can range from an average rainfall of 100mm to 140mm per year. Lake Eyre, also known as Kati Thanda, is the fourth largest terminal lake in the world and Australia’s lowest point at 15.2m below sea level.
The lake is an inward draining catchment spanning 1.2 million sq.km, yet it is rarely filled with water. Because of natural aversion in the landscape, most water is lost as it travels towards the lake through evaporation and infiltration. As the lake evaporates, only salt from the water remains – Lake Eyre is usually a salt flat, a white and barren landscape.
When the lake does flood in rare heavy rains, the landscape is transformed. A kaleidoscope of colour blooms with wildflowers and wetland foliage, while waterbirds flock and endemic frogs and fish quickly appear.
