Harvey Painting

My work is mainly based on animals, in particular Scottish wildlife. I use acrylic paint on canvas, leaving the background blank to draw the focus purely on the animal. Capturing the soul of the animal in their eyes, the softness of the fur and the wetness of the Scottish weather on the beast, is what I endeavor to create in my work. I try to achieve the different textures by using lots of light layers of paint and a wide variety of brushes.
