Orphans by Lynne Bertalli

Features

ARTIST NOTES: Orphans is a work drawn from the sadness of the terrible bushfires we have experienced in the summer of 2019 -2020 where so much of the Australian Wildlife and Flora have been devastated. The saved animals are lovingly cared for by wonderful people who go above & beyond to save our beautiful animals. The sleeping carer shares her bed with the little orphan Joeys in order to keep them warm and secure. My colour palette is a combination of cool and warm tones. I use various techniques of dry brush, washes & thick layers of paint to create my work. I am strongly influenced by the work of artists Marc Chagall, Mirka Mora, Arthur Boyd and Charles Blackman. This painting is on a quality canvas and is ready to hang. Medium Acrylic Paint on Italian canvas stretched onto a wood frame and ready to hang with D rings and wire. Signed on the front.
