Enchanted

This painting captures a moment of wonderment between a wombat and baby wombat.

I've seen and photographed wombats many times in Tasmania's wilderness. There's nothing cuter than seeing a baby wombat running! They're so cute. I love wombats and this was furthered cemented when I sketched outdoors with the company of a wombat. It stayed with me munching on grass for an hour. Now, not too many people can say they have had a wombat as a sketching partner! They are gentle animals and I try to capture that gentleness and calmness in my paintings.

Wombats are marsupials native to Tasmania and the mainland of Australia. They are herbivores. Female wombats give birth to a single young in the spring and the young leave the pouch after about six months.

This print is printed on William Turner 310gsm print version textured water colour paper, which retains the look and feel of water colour paintings.  No wonder I have so many people ask me if the print is an original painting! This is an open edition print.
