The strong and powerful Eagle is a predator at the top of its food chain. Perched high in the treetop on the lookout for a meal, the Eagle spreads its wings ready to fly and soar high with a freedom that only an Eagle can experience.
[About the artist] MATTHEW SHORT
“My paintings are about the Great Barrier Reef or Queensland rainforests, places of amazing fish, vegetation and colour.
There is so much to explore in painting the reefs and rainforests with their colours and shapes. The animal life from the wonderful fish that come in all shapes and sizes to other animals such as turtles. The rainforests provide a unique range of colours between the plants, rock and ponds. It’s easy to get absorbed in the journey putting paint on the canvas. It’s like creating a story but with a picture.
I hope people will look at my paintings and see the beauty and think of how they can help preserve the environment.”
