Description
"Have you seen any others like my friend?" the little quoll asked the birds. The clearing filled with concerned chatter and sideways glances. They had not.

As a child, I used to regularly check out a VHS from the library called ""Wild Australia"" which featured archival footage of the now extinct thylacine (commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger or Tasmanian wolf). I was moved by the loneliness of a pacing striped creature with sorrowful eyes, the last known member of its kind, preserved in the zoo with no hope of its species' survival.

That image stuck with me. For my latest portfolio project, I plan to tell a story about a young thylacine who gets separated from her mother and goes on a journey to try to find her with the help of her friend, an Eastern quoll. I'm looking forward to sharing paintings, designs and characters from this project with you as it progresses!
