ARTWORK DESCRIPTION: Rendered in chalk on black paper, a very pensive and suspicious gorilla looks out of Mike Pickett’s powerful drawing. The gorilla appears to be pondering his future and wondering what lies ahead.
ARTIST BIOGRAPHY: Mike Pickett is a self-taught artist with a passion for impact. His black and white themed art, with the occasional splash of colour, largely draws inspiration from the animal world to bring attention to the ever growing need to protect endangered species and their habitats from the threat of today’s society. Working in chalk, Mike’s attention to detail and use of light and shadow combines in a unique way to capture the essence and emotion of each animal, and portrays the vulnerability of their place in wildlife today.
