Original acrylic on canvas
Her work is characterized by the close cropping and intimacy of her animal portraits, who often present an inquisitive pose to the viewer. Wendy usually paints her animal subjects against a flat white background in acrylics, creating an uninterrupted connection with the onlooker, allowing attention to be fully placed on the animal. She avoids photo-realism, using loose brush strokes to create life and movement in the painting, whilst attention to the eyes brings depth and soul to her subject. Her animals disappear off the edge and around the corners of the painting, creating a feeling that these creatures are free to wander off the canvas at any time. Her lovable animals bring joy to any house.
This painting was a finalist in the prestigious David Sheppard Wildlife Foundation Exhibition.
Size: 124 x 65 cm
