Celebrating
Australia’s Magnificent Wildlife is a celebration of Daryl
Dickson’s beautiful work, informed by her passion for the conservation of
wildlife and wild places. From black-winged stilts to brushtail possums, see
the variety and colour of Australian wildlife contained in one wonderful book.
She highlights the natural beauty of species that deserve to be saved in what
is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the natural world.
The work of artists crosses borders, boundaries and
language barriers. Painting wildlife does not need language to explain the
essence of the beauty, landscape or movement of a creature. This book can be
understood and enjoyed by people of any nationality.
Witness the ancient tropical forests and majestic
landscapes of northern Queensland, Australia -- home to some of the world’s
rarest and most fascinating species. Dickson’s work is inspired by the
incredible diversity of flora and fauna she lives amongst, which are rich and
colourful in the diverse, thriving valley she calls home.
Dickson’s techniques have varied in medium, from
illustration to watercolour and many in between, but nature has always been the
key element of her art. View a lifetime of artworks and share in her journey to
becoming an artist, showcased in this large-format, beautifully designed book
that is an essential addition to coffee tables everywhere.
