The Gibraltar Range Waratah is a listed threatened species found only in a small area within the Gibraltar Range National Park, about a two-hour drive north from Armidale, NSW. The leaves of this waratah turn various shades of red, orange or brown before dropping from the plant and I felt a single leaf was worth painting on its own – I have never seen a painting of a waratah that didn’t include its flowers so it was interesting and rewarding doing something different.
