Musgrave is a contemporary abstract painter based in Melbourne, Australia. His contribution to this form is a unique sense of soulfulness, offering a subtle, ethereal expression to that which is deeply passionate and instinctual.
His paintings attempt to capture something of the mystery of the spirit and give it form. They are expressions or statements of his encounter with the sacred, which demand an intense and intimate connection to his own inner experiences.
