Critique by Ken White:
Wayne Strickland-Widely regarded as Australia's greatest living Equestrian Artist,
is passionate about Australia, its history and its characters. His work has a dynamic realism, born of a lifelong association with the men and horses of the Australian bush. Wayne sculpts in bronze, and paints in oils capturing Australia's heritage and identity. 

Strickland's audience is international. One of his works was presented to (then) President Ronald Reagan, another was commissioned by a Swiss corporate, still others are part of public and private collections in Britain, Canada,Italy,Germany, France, New Zealand, America Japan and the USA. The artist uses the 'lost wax' method of casting, which is both difficult and labour intensive, but allows for the precision and fine detail his work is renowned for. When sculpting, Strickland is hands on, not only creating the original moulds, but also participating in the casting and finishing processes

                                                                                 

FORWARDERD BY KEN WHITE (AUSTRALIAN ART CRITIC)

International artist Wayne Strickland calls himself an "Australian Historical Artist". The bronze sculptor, oil painter is passionate about his country, it's characters and that passion shines through his unique work.Wayne,strives to create a sense of identity for Australians through his art. "I try to get Australians to look at themselves and their heritage", Wayne says.He has been Painting and Sculpting for over 30 years and won many awards for his efforts.

Wayne's rural background led to a special affinity for horses and other animals, his attention to his sculptures means he can accurately depict a horses breed and type. One of his more famous works Pharlap - created under the watchful eye of the famous horses trapper Tommy Woodcock - is currently on display at National Gallery Victoria.         A SAFE INVESTMENT FOR ALL ART LOVERS
