112 | Dark Bliss | Carla Grace | $12000 | Realistic oil on linen wildlife painting

Freed from a life in the circus, where his back legs were continually broken to keep him docile for vanity photos and petting, George enjoys a blissful roll in some dung. I photographed him in 2023, and added the dappled sunlight and vibrant colours to create an atmosphere of calm and beauty around the life with a dark history.
