It’s always an exciting challenge for an artist to show different facets of a subject. I was determined to show fierce will to survive as well as the vulnerability and beauty of these two barn owls. I deviated from the original reference image, changing expressions and the composition. I also transformed a bright daytime image to a dramatic chiaroscuro. I was determined to show their beauty and deadliness and to convey a sense of tension. After the kill, one of them feeds, thus becoming vulnerable, so the other watches out for danger. The painting has a timeless, almost Baroque feel and would make a wonderful focal point for any wall.

I’m a Melbourne based figurative artist. I use a mix of traditional and modern techniques and bold, graphic compositions to create soulful and striking work. I’m fascinated by the tension between the realism of the primary subject in my paintings and the abstraction of the surroundings, between the control of finer work to the intuitive release of the broad strokes; the two sides of art; craft and passion.
