An interpretation of the September 28th 2016 tornado outbreak - one of the most significant weather events in South Australia’s recorded history.
On this day, there were four recorded tornadoes, including the infamous Multi-Vortex Blyth Tornado that started as a violent supercell, hitting Snowtown with destructive winds and tennis ball sized hail, before intensifying and hitting Blyth directly.
The painting is inspired by my witnessing of the funnel through the hills of Armagh; looking on in disbelief as I was travelling to Blyth with the family to take our daughters to ballet. Despite having endured a supercell on Yorke Peninsula in the early 90s, I honestly never thought in my lifetime I would be witnessing a high EF 2-3 ripping though our state’s mid north. digital artwork print combining Lloyd the Bartender from The Shining with Admiral Ackbar from Return of the Jedi.
