Description
In this sensitive wildlife study, David Shepherd captures the alert poise of an antelope through a balance of observation and painterly freedom. Inspired by his experiences in Africa, Shepherd uses soft edges and layered paint to suggest form within space. His restrained palette and textured surface focus attention on the animal’s presence, conveying both vulnerability and quiet strength.
