LIMITED EDITION PAINTINGS Some of Norman's most acclaimed pieces of work are his magnificent watercolour and oil paintings. Mastering various techniques and at times experimenting beyond tradition, his paintings reflect his artistic genius and his status as oine of Australia's greatest artists in history. Norman's favourite painting theme was of human figures, in particulr nudes. Countless of his most famous peices were realistic, yet mythical portrayals of women, men, gods, ancient heroes and creatures of his own imagination. Norman's unique mix of nudity, eroticism, fantasy and art, while contributing greatly to his success now, made him a controversial figure in the early half of the 1900s.
