Inspiration: Our Tasmanian Devils have been in the hearts of Australians for a long time and now these angels have bounced back in numbers thanks to conservation groups across the country. In particular the efforts of Aussie Ark near the Barrington tops of New South Wales! I wanted to highlight the endurance and resilience of the species so I’ve included some of our native Kangaroo Grass as a compliment to their ancient story.

Big thank you to Aussie Ark for the reference photos and also their amazing conservation efforts to save our little devils!

This series has specifically utilised watercolour, flame and soot to achieve the varying golden browns and charcoal greys present in the finished artwork.
