Description
The Rhino Sat on It brings unexpected charm and humor to the canvas, as a powerful rhinoceros perches gently atop a luxurious, vividly painted blue armchair. With a body streaked in bold reds, yellows, and greens, the rhino’s form is both commanding and endearing. Its thoughtful gaze adds a layer of quiet emotion, contrasting delightfully with the playful absurdity of the scene. Set against a warm tan background, Gillie and Marc invite us to consider strength through a softer lens—where even the toughest creatures can enjoy a moment of stillness, comfort, and a good seat.
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.
