Sorry, this painting has already been snapped up. But, if you have taken a liking to it, let me know and I can create a piece in a kindred style just for you. Simply reach out below.

Australian wildlife has always been a big part of my world — I grew up in the bush, surrounded by it. Koalas have this quiet, almost meditative presence that I find really grounding. In this piece, I’ve painted one sitting low to the ground, head tilted, looking off into the distance. There’s a softness in the pose, but a quiet strength too. The green background brings a sense of calm and connection to the landscape. Using my layered, expressive style, I’ve aimed to capture the stillness and soul of this iconic animal. A gentle yet powerful piece for wildlife lovers.

My Process

Through the use of mixed media, combining acrylics, spray, enamel and intermittent use of oil paints I let my subject emerge from a rich and deeply layered base. The dimensional texture that masterfully unveils each layer, lets the bright colours play in harmony and contrast with each other.

The Finish

This artwork is created on 380gsm 100% cotton canvas and finished with a double coat UV resistant, high gloss varnish to protect the integrity and longevity of the painting. Stretched and ready to hang, using gallery-grade hanging wire, this artwork is completed with a custom-crafted floating frame made from Tasmanian oak. I have signed this original painting on the front and back, with its title and date written on the rear of the canvas.
