Whimsical Creatures is a continuation of Jessica's exploration of Australian flora and fauna. Her passion and focus in her personal arts practice is Australian wildlife and plants. This new selection of artworks illustrates portraits of wildlife surrounded by their natural environment. Some are covered in eucalyptus leaves and others native flora. Detailed stippling and cross hatching mixed with flora covered portraits of animals, creates a whimsical effect. The wondrous creatures featured are kangaroos, koalas, wombats, platypus, sea turtles, quokkas, dingos and more! Artworks are framed in complementing Victorian ash raw timber that is sourced from regrowth forests. Matching archival quality prints and cards are also on exhibit. The exhibition features a eucalyptus leaf covered window illustration on view as you enter the gallery. Jessica aims to illustrate the beauty of our native animals to share an appreciation and awareness of our precious wildlife.
