Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

Surface patterns that replicate the subtle reflections of sun and water beam down the die of this stunning creature. An awesome apex predator and feared universally. There is actually still so much we don’t know about the tiger shark. I like to think this tigress is out making her own way in the world.

Using one colour only I’ve applied acrylic paint in a way that mostly resembles watercolour. I’ve moved the pigment around whilst wet to showcase the markings and subtle changes in tone that shape the shark. This requires a lot of concentration and tapping in to all the skills developed as an artist in a very short space of time. Once the paint is dry there is no moving it!

This artwork captures the silence, strength and beauty of this enormous marine mammal. It is perfectly poised and noble, allowing the large artwork to make a big statement on the wall.
