For the people who have asked if it is me on the painting, yes I use myself as a model for my images, from shots that have been taken while I have been out in nature , connecting and having adventures :-) I felt it was time to depict the Wolf in my painting, to depict the freedom, the wildness. The following explains my inspiration for this painting ….As I sat by a campfire I heard a wolf howling, close enough to know that I was within its territory, it was one of a pack but if I was to portray a wolf in my paintings it would be that one, I know that wolf, by hearing it in the wild I am connected to it. My paintings and photographs of the nude in nature depict this connection, this freedom. When I go to the wild and lonely places and walk naked I feel a spiritual connection to nature. The images are based on reality, my own experiences in my homeland of England and when I lived in the Rocky Mountain Country in America. These experiences have inspired my art, my art is an adventure.
