Wilderness lost - Hunt for the Thylacine.

 

My methodology is erasure drawing, beginning with white plaster coated with a tinted wash and covered with charcoal egg tempera. I then remove parts of the surface to produce the image. This erasure reflects the subject matter, the disappearance of wild places, the flora and fauna that rely on these diverse habitats for their survival and ultimately our own survival. We are the problem; we cannot procrastinate any longer. The “too hard basket” is overflowing. We must make decisions and carry them forward no matter what the pain for us, it will be more painful for future generations if we do not.
