Natalie’s Inspiration: “I was fortunate to have the opportunity to say hello to these three cute Dingo pups last July at the Australian Reptile Park. Meet Rusty, Muffin and Socks. It was quite a challenge to capture some reference photos for this painting the pups were in a very playful mood and never sat still!! I learnt that ‘Socks’ was going to be adopted by Roz and Kevin from Cedar Creek Wombat Rescue Inc. I have visited their bush Sanctuary a few times, which is situated a short drive from the quaint little village of Wollombi. They work tirelessly with our wildlife, especially wombats. I decided on using some artistic licence to create a scene in bushland close to where Socks now lives. Only a few weeks ago I travelled to Wollombi to gather reference photos of the beautiful bushrock formations and dappled sunlight filtering through the towering eucalyptus, I wanted to capture gentle harmony between the sheltered landscape and the innocent pups. I absolutely loved creating this painting, it reminded me of how fortunate we are to live in such a beautiful country.”
