A black panther against a pale, broken ground. The coat absorbs the light; the eyes return it. The painting rests on the contrast between a still subject and restless knife work, dark mass held inside a quiet field.
The Silence belongs to The Watchers, a Pennywell series of animal portraits painted to be looked at, and to look back.
Each piece is produced to order. Available as a fine art print, a hand-stretched canvas, or a framed canvas in a black or oak float frame.
