Fremantle Oil Paintings
Fremantle is just like a whispered secret
It's mystery, discovery and surprise
Around every corner, down every street
There are those ships moving like mountains
A long slow dance with the sunset and the sea.
These rich and colourful original artworks by Ken Rasmussen capture the essence of Fremantle.
Come To The Forest | $5,250 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| RH86 |
This is a little celebration of the pine forest of Cottesloe and the colours of the kites, the ships and the houses. I am reminded of the lively European fairgrounds with their flags and joyful activity.
Looking Forward | $5,250 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| QN62 |
We live in an optimistic city where the natural momentum is always carrying us forward. This is a place where people look to the future. They have a vision for how things can be. That energy is all around us.
Metropolis By The Ocean | $7,400 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| KW44 |
Perth is a glittering Metropolis on the ocean’s edge. From Rockingham up to the north, your eye takes in Rottnest, Cottesloe, the city of Perth, Fremantle and the Swan River. So many delights on offer. Perth and it’s ocean overflows with colour and nourishment.
Open Playing Field | $2,560 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| HS97 |
When you’re on playing fields, you can see the whole expanse out in front of you. You can see the players and the activities, and you get a sense of where you can engage. You can see how to participate. You get choices.
Our Kingdom Come | $4,800 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| ZT84 |
This painting is all about the heavenly quality of this place and how there is this sense of protection. In days past, towns had their forts to protect them. I imagine Fremantle, Rottnest, and Cottesloe are each little kingdoms with iconic buildings looking over them.
Red Dog By The Sea | $3,680 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| JH77 |
There’s a story about how once Red Dog hitched a ride from the Pilbara down to Fremantle. Dingo (on the Dingo Flour sign) makes me think about Red Dog out for a stroll on the beach.
Welcome To The Beach Palace | $2,400 |
Oil on Linen Painting
| VP70 |
I’m paying homage to our civic spaces like Cottesloe Beach. This precious place is the setting for so much joy and connection. We can all share the beach and its beauty. We can all be rich and feel the luxury of living here.
