The Survivors Artwork

"The Survivors" was inspired by the isolating year of the pandemic lockdowns. Like many people I re-discovered an affinity with nature and especially the forests. I have created a series of work based upon the atmosphere and magic of the woodland. It had never felt so obvious that the past few hundred years of global industrialisation and urban living has effectively made us forget where we came from. This image is about the bigger picture. It was a toss-up as to whether I called this "The Bigger Picture" or "The Survivors". The image represents the realisation that as our understanding increases about the planets prehistoric past, that throughout the millennia of time the true survivors are the Raptors. The Carnivore Birds. They have been on the planet far, far, longer than Humans have. There is a limited edition of one. This refers to the original work. The image was created using traditional methods combined with various digital techniques and rendering. The canvas is then finished off by hand. It is an original signed work. To make the shipping shape easier to pack, the canvas frame comes without hanging furniture. The print options are unlimited reproduction of the original.
