2021. My work is about the balance between human imprint and wild habitats. Leopard on Edge has a double-meaning. As with so many exquisite iconic wild animals, their very existence is precarious. Survival has made her sharp, edgy. The camouflaged and shadowy forms reflect colour and light from the foliage and earth underfoot. I have amplified the loud spots of colour which is as I have experienced them in African bush (I lived and worked in South Africa). Heat and dazzling light distorting everything you see. Each painting is made to commission. Please contact the artist to discuss.
