Light Horse & Engineer Art
|
|
The Light Horse and Royal Australian Engineer series were completed a few years back now. I enjoyed working on these series because of my connection with both these military corps. My grandfather and grand-uncles were light horsemen belonging to the 10th and 25th. My connection to the Royal Australian Engineers is I was a sapper. I was originally a sapper in RASVY until it became amalgamated into RAE in the mid 1990’s. I am very proud of my connection to both corps.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Royal Australian Engineer Art
|
100 Years of Engineering (Oil on Canvas) In times of great adversity, when backed against a wall. When obstacles become too great, do not give in to fear. They find a way to overcome all problems in their way. They’re soldiers with ability to think outside the square. They have a mind for making things that sets them from the rest. In battles past they’ve shown their worth - they’re cunning as a fox. Their soldier skills are dinky-di - as good as any grunt. So if you need a helping hand, there’s one you should implore. And if you need a real good mate to join you for a beer. |
