'The Look of Love' is a new artwork by Carley Cornelissen, an emerging Australian artist based in Brisbane, Queensland. Her work is beautiful, colourful and full of energy. Her strong feelings towards the way humans treat animals inspire her to highlight the influence of human population and greed on the environment. Each piece she creates holds a special meaning, hidden in the flowers, the insects, birds or animals and of this work Carley has written:
"The leaves and rosella in this piece are inspired by my parents property in the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast. It is one of the most peaceful places with stunning plants and wildlife and it inspires me every time I visit."
Carley’s pieces contain references to endangered fauna, extinct animals and wildlife at risk. She likes to use her work to get people to think about how their actions affect the environment. Carley uses patterns and bold colours to provide a glimmer of hope and to help people realise that we as individuals can make a difference. She also uses transfers as she feels the image represents the fragility of the situation, it shows how endangered species are here but also almost gone.
