ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2022 Submission
My work represents animals the way I see them; as unique creations and works of art themselves. My paintings are formed around their ""portraits"", in which the species is in a new space protected from the current threats to it’s environment. Safe within confines of the canvas, these animals can only be observed from a distance, hopefully appreciated for their power and beauty.
The subject matter selected in my work involves species, places, and natural phenomena that greatly inspire me. My work is a combination of things I’ve seen myself, would like to see, or my own renditions inspired by colors and occurrences in nature. I have a great respect and awe for all the handiwork of my Creator; the artist of Creation, and the author of my life. The beauty, power, and perfect intricacies found in these animals could be described as nothing other than immaculate artwork to me.
