Artwork Description

Born to Be Wild is a bold, regal portrait of untamed spirit. A tiger, impeccably dressed in a fine suit and tophat, sits with casual dominance on a royal crutch — part gentleman, part wild beast. This piece plays with contrast: refinement and rawness, elegance and power, instinct and identity.

It’s a reminder that being wild doesn’t mean being reckless — it means being true to your nature, even when the world expects you to be tame. Painted in my signature layered style with expressive detail and street-art edge, the work also features a custom augmented reality animation that brings the character to life through any smartphone.

Artist Bio

The Space Cowboy is a 56-time Guinness World Records breaker and internationally recognised performer who has been featured on television shows around the globe. Today, he has become one of Australia’s most exciting contemporary visual artists, with works collected worldwide by private collectors, celebrities, museums, and commercial institutions.

An award-winning artist and top seller at major art fairs across Australia and New Zealand, The Space Cowboy creates bold, expressive paintings that often come alive through augmented reality. His Byron Bay gallery showcases this unique body of work—where splashes, drips, and imperfections are celebrated as essential parts of the story, reminding us to embrace mistakes as part of life’s beauty.

At the gallery’s grand opening, he famously stood barefoot atop a million-volt Tesla Coil, channeling lightning through his body into a painted canvas—a powerful statement of his fusion of art and innovation. His works have since been featured in numerous publications, and he continues to inspire audiences with his fearless creativity.

With over 20 million online views and a global following, The Space Cowboy brings the same daring spirit that defined his performance career into his visual art—leaving behind a legacy of joy, curiosity, and breaking boundaries.
