Lifting the veil

Article Abstract:

Bill Robinson, a 62-year-old Australian artist, has decided to retire from competitions in landscape painting. Robinson, well-known for his panoramas, receives much of his inspiration from his home in a rainforest mountaintop community off the Gold Coast. The artist believes most artists need not act like chameleons but should create work that reflects an intense life.
