Description
The lion was filled with love for the world. He knew he was very special and an important part of his ecosystem, keeping the numbers of prey animals in check so that no species became over-abundant. Sometimes he wondered if the rest of the world understood this. Humans and their ever-expanding towns are making his own home far too small and hunters come with their strange desire to kill him and the other big animals. He sits atop his pear, a symbol of affection, and tries to convince the world that they must show him affection too.
Artwork Features
In this highly expressive and passionate style Gillie and Marc have let their emotions run free in this explosive collection of freehand painting. Inspired by the styles of Brett Whiteley, Francis Bacon, and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Gillie and Marc have combined enamel paint with oil pastel to breathe life into the worlds most endangered species. Over the past five years, Gillie and Marc spent hours sketching and studying wildlife, travelling the globe to meet these animals up close. These sketches have now been brought to life in vibrant colour with love and passion. Each painting is created as a team with both the artists bringing their own emotion into every painting.
