His passion has been to document the great energy and character of Sydney Harbour, its moods and movement, the perpetual ebb and flow of the ferries, the human activity, and that great symbol of Sydney, the Opera House. \u003cem\u003e‘I have spent countless nights watching the moon reflect upon the water and the shadow of this great building creating colours and unique impressions each passing day.’\u003c\/em\u003e These subjects have become increasingly important to Kingston during the last two decades, when he has devoted himself more fully to painting and drawing.
