Original artwork description:

An original Pencil drawing by Paul Stowe - The drawing depicts the footprint of a large animal in the forest, the imprint has formed small puddles, crushed vegetation and compacted mud - in one of the small puddles you can see the reflection of of Tiger - Is he stalking his prey? Does he know he is a Tiger? Does he recognise his own reflection? - anyway, loved drawing this even though it took forever to get the mud correct!!



Drawn as always on smooth Bristol Board with Faber Castell 9000 series pencils and a Tomo Zero eraser - size for this drawing was c34cm X 34cm - Time Taken c40+ hours.

Following a 20 year Hiatus Paul picked up his pencils again and started drawing back in 2012
Turning professional in 2016 Paul has won accolades across the globe, initially exhibiting and selling work in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand he now resides in the centre for contemporary British Art and the Tate Modern Gallery, St Ives, Cornwall.
From his open studio and commercial gallery in the town he spends hours, weeks and months drawing incredibly detailed images inspired by the plethora of artists and art in the local area. His work is on permanent display in the Stowe Gallery of Truro and with individual and corporate collections across the world.
