Tronson du Coudray's recent art work "Complexities" is one of philosophical realism for each and every person dealing with everything that comes into their lives.
This art work has taken on a life of its own after it was placed on Facebook and distributed through his own art and ministry networks and culminated by his own family members.
This new art creation by Tronson du Coudray hangs high up a flight of stairs in his home whereby everyone who enters or leaves necessarily will view it and so many have spoken of it and its relevance to them.
Family and good friends are one's best and worst critics as they will tell you like it is without candour and this specific art work 'Complexities' is right there with approvals, nods of recognition and much more besides.

The message
The message of this art work is salient to each and every person who views it, whether in passing or time line viewing. This art work speaks whether viewed in an instant or given trunk and those who have seen it have been quick to give voice.
This art work delineates the nature of complexity in our lives. The liberalities of understanding are generated by the bucket load (as it were) with sighs of reality and unreality, its immediate grasp explodes in a quick smile and heartache.
Art has a way of communication and to that of the subliminal whereby that might not be said or dare not be uttered for want of explanation, can be viewed and an exasperated nod acknowledged.
This art work has such an agenda whereby the recipient of its message underscores the primary point, marks its territory and internally signals its truth and veracity. This is unmistakable with 'Perplexities'.
Immediate responses are often telling and one of my daughters, not one prone to suggestable outbursts of telegraphic memorable one-liners, said to everyone in the room, how much she liked this painting 'Complexities'.

Tronson du Coudray
Mark Tronson turned semi-professional as an artist in 1999 when living in Moruya south coast NSW and in 2003 the Basil Sellers Art Centre was opened in Moruya and a year later the $15,000 Basil Sellers Moruya Art Prize was developed.
From this foray into art prizes Mr Basil Sellers AM developed the $100,000 Sport-Art Prize at the Ian Potter Museum of Art in the University of Melbourne.
Mark Tronson developed his stage (art) name at this time from his Tronson du Coudray ancestral French history which has stuck for his many artistic contributions. In 2006 after the Tronson's relocated to Tweed Heads northern NSW on the border with Coolangatta Qld he opened his Basil Sellers Art Studio.
He displayed regularly in his own exhibitions in both Tweed Heads and Tweed Heads South and as his ministry grew including Country Town Tours linking in with regional and rural art communities, and he withdrew from exhibiting to taking on Commissions.
A most remarkable trilogy commission by Basil Sellers was on Sport with the three art works titled Anguish, Confusion, Hope.
In 2011 the Laguna Quays Respite cottage was established for missionaries and in 2013 Basil Sellers and Mark Tronson collaborated for the Basil Sellers Midge Point $2000 Annual Art Prize. As a member of the Tweed Heads Chamber of Commerce he provides a small art work for their monthly breakfast 'business card' draw.
