Forester Kangaroo
Graphite on 640gsm hot press rag paper
Open Edition print: 80x60cm
Silent Approach captures the haunting beauty and stealth of the Tasmanian Masked Owl in its natural domain. Rendered in exquisite watercolor gouache, the painting portrays the owl mid-flight, its immense, outstretched wings frozen in a moment of silent precision. The intricate patterns of the feathers—soft browns, creams, and speckled grays—blend seamlessly with the shadowed forest backdrop, a testament to the bird’s mastery of camouflage.
Its intense, coal-black eyes are fixed forward, exuding both wisdom and predatory focus. The soft mist of the Tasmanian wilderness envelops the scene, with eucalyptus branches framing the owl’s path. The foliage, painted with delicate realism, contrasts the sharp talons poised for an unseen landing, capturing the tension and grace of the predator’s approach.
The painting evokes a profound sense of stillness, as though the viewer has stumbled into a sacred, fleeting moment of nature’s quiet hunt. It is both a tribute to the Tasmanian Masked Owl's elusive presence and a celebration of the wilderness it calls home.
The Renovation - Rock Dove and Upholstery Springs masterfully captures the quiet poetry of nature reclaiming human spaces. Set against the backdrop of a weathered Norman residence in France, this watercolor gouache artwork weaves a narrative of time’s passing. A rock dove, regal in its muted grays and shimmering teal highlights, perches amidst the tangled remnants of rusted upholstery springs. Its calm presence evokes resilience and adaptation.
The decaying window frame, with its peeling paint and warped wood, speaks of history—perhaps a home long forgotten. The crumbling stone facade, characteristic of Normandy's rustic charm, hints at a storied past now softened by the passage of seasons. Ivy tendrils creep through the springs, adding a touch of verdant life to the subdued palette, as nature quietly reclaims this fragment of human existence.
The reflection in the glass subtly blurs the boundaries between the physical and the ephemeral, suggesting a dialogue between the present and the past. This poignant piece feels like a love letter to the enduring beauty of both nature and heritage, offering a serene yet melancholic glimpse into the coexistence of the natural and the man-made in rural France.

‘The Eyrie’ - Tasmanian Wedge-tailed Eagle Nest (Aquila audax fleayi)
Limited Edition print size: 100 cm x 80 cm. Printed on 310 gsm Museum quality art paper.
Wedge-tailed eagle nesting habitat is generally restricted to predominantly closed canopy old growth native forest, almost exclusively in tracts of tall eucalypt forest. Trees selected for nesting are among the largest in the locality, typically greater than 27 metres (89 ft) in height, with few exceptions. Nest trees normally occur on leeward slopes sheltered from prevailing strong winds.
The nest is a large structure of dead sticks, usually reused for years, often reaching considerable size. Nests 1.8 m across, 3 m deep and weighing about 400 kg are known. Nests have a shallow cup on the top, lined with fresh twigs and leaves. Sticks are added by a bird while it stands in the nest. If these sticks are dropped outside the nest, no effort is made to retrieve them. (With special thanks to Geoff ‘Hutcho’ Hutchinson for his fabulous reference images)

Feathers are epidermal growths that form a distinctive outer covering, or plumage on avian species. They are considered the most complex integumentary structures found in vertebrates and a premier example of a complex evolutionary novelty. As well as controlling flight and regulating temperature, they often attract more than just other birds with their beauty.

'You're Late ' - Peregrine family (Falco peregrinus)
This female Peregrine was successfully rehabilitated at the Raptor Refuge of Tasmania, Kettering. A joy to watch and a very good news story.
The Peregrine Falcon is the embodiment of apex hunter; fastest animal in the world and master of the famous Peregrine ‘stoop’.
My portrait of Peregrine domesticity hopefully provides the viewer with a snapshot of another side to these magnificent raptors - that of protective maternal instinct and total commitment.
While the female incubates the eggs and the chicks newly hatched the family unit is fed on the nest by the male, hence her expression …’You’re Late’

The Tasmanian masked owl (Tyto novaehollandiae castanops) is a bird in the barn owl family Tytonidae that is endemic to the island state of Tasmania, Australia. It is the largest subspecies of the Australian masked owl, the largest Tyto owl in the world, and is sometimes considered a full species. The sub-specific name castanops, meaning “chestnut-faced”, comes from the colouring of the facial disc.

The white-bellied sea eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster), also known as the white-breasted sea eagle, is a large diurnal bird of prey in the family Accipitridae. Originally described by Johann Friedrich Gmelin in 1788, it is closely related to Sanford's sea eagle of the Solomon Islands, and the two are considered a superspecies. A distinctive bird, the adult white-bellied sea eagle has a white head, breast, under-wing coverts and tail. The upper parts are grey and the black under-wing flight feathers contrast with the white coverts. The tail is short and wedge-shaped as in all Haliaeetus species. Like many raptors, the female is slightly larger than the male, and can measure up to 90 cm (35 in) long with a wingspan of up to 2.2 m (7.2 ft), and weigh 4.5 kg (9.9 lb).
