Works

Large format oil on canvas. Each work applies the structure of Observerism: a realistic focal zone, a wave state periphery, and a transition boundary set by the viewer. Select any painting for full views, details, and acquisition information.

The Observer of National Science — Observerism portrait of Dr Alan Finkel AC, former Chief Scientist of Australia, oil on canvas, 180 x 120 cm View work

The Observer of National Science

Dr Alan Finkel AC · Chief Scientist of Australia, 2016–2020
Scientist Series · Oil on canvas · 180 × 120 cm · 2025

The founding work of the Scientist Series. Finkel stands in the landscape of Australian science and energy, the domain of national science policy made visible. The focal zone centres on his face and hands, the collapsed reality. The land and sky around him stay a wave, carried as rings and spirals through the painting's periphery.

Finkel Study — smaller, darker Observerism study of Dr Alan Finkel AC, oil on canvas, 80 x 60 cm View work

Finkel Study

Dr Alan Finkel AC
Scientist Series · Oil on canvas · c. 80 × 60 cm · 2025

An intimate study with a darker palette and a harder ring treatment. The concentric wave structures dominate the space around the subject, foregrounding the uncollapsed state. Where the large portrait places Finkel in the world of national science, this one leaves only the observer and everything he has not yet looked at.

The Observer of Dark Matter — Observerism portrait of Professor Elisabetta Barberio at the SABRE dark matter detector, oil on canvas, 180 x 120 cm View work

The Observer of Dark Matter

Professor Elisabetta Barberio · Particle Physics, University of Melbourne
Scientist Series · Oil on canvas · 180 × 120 cm · 2026

Barberio stands inside the SABRE dark matter experiment, a kilometre underground at the Stawell facility in Victoria, holding one of the ultra pure crystals built to catch particles no one has ever seen. The crystal in her hands is the most resolved thing in the painting. The detector behind her dissolves into the wave state, rings and spirals carrying the invisible matter she leads the path to discovering.

The Observer of Cosmic Expansion — Observerism portrait of Professor Brian Schmidt AC at Mount Stromlo Observatory, oil on canvas, 180 x 120 cm View work

The Observer of Cosmic Expansion

Professor Brian Schmidt AC · Nobel Laureate in Physics, Australian National University
Scientist Series · Oil on canvas · 180 × 120 cm · 2026

Schmidt is depicted within his observatory at Mount Stromlo, where he led the team that measured the accelerating expansion of the universe. The telescope he stands beside was used mostly for work on gamma ray bursts, the largest explosions in the universe. It burned in the 2003 firestorm and was never rebuilt. He is painted among the ruins, still working.

Lizard Rock — Observerism landscape of the Australian bush, oil on canvas, 120 x 150 cm, available for acquisition View work

Lizard Rock

Landscape Series
Oil on canvas · 120 × 150 cm · 2025

A resting place in the Australian bush. The rock collapses into the focal zone, sharp and warm, while the surrounding terrain dissolves into the wave state of the natural world, the light you see the whole scene by, held open at the edges.

Red River Above the Blue — Observerism landscape of a Blue Mountains campfire under the Milky Way, oil on canvas, 120 x 150 cm View work

Red River Above the Blue

Landscape Series
Oil on canvas · 120 × 150 cm · 2025

A campfire in the Blue Mountains, looking out over the night and the Milky Way. The fire is the collapsed focal point, the thing you are looking at. The cosmos above dissolves into spiralling wave structures, the whole universe held as everything it could be, seen from a fire in the Australian dark.

The Double Slit, Turned to Face You — Observerism theory painting of the double slit experiment facing the viewer, by Samuel Morrow View work

The Double Slit, Turned to Face You

Theory Painting · Oil on canvas · 2026

The most reproduced diagram in physics, rotated to face the observer. Drawn from the side, the experiment is a diagram about light. Turned to face you, it becomes a description of looking: the beam travels toward your eye, and you stand where the detector stands. You are the measurement.

The Hidden Light — Observerism theory painting of twisting light and its dark core, by Samuel Morrow View work

The Hidden Light

Theory Painting · Oil on canvas · 2026

Three forms of light and their probability waves. Ordinary light travels in flat wavefronts and lands where you look. Twisting light spirals around its own dark core, carrying energy that never arrives at the centre of your gaze. Light that is there, and cannot be seen head on.
