Artwork Synopsis:

“The Happy Smiley Devil” draws inspiration from the playful essence of baby Tasmanian Devils, or Joeys, characterised by their endearing smiles and gentle calls for attention. While many artistic representations portray Tasmanian Devils as fierce and intimidating, my intention was to highlight a more playful aspect of their nature. I have observed that the joyous expression of this cheerful devil has a contagious effect, often bringing smiles to those who view it. It brings me immense pride to know that this piece can inspire happiness and evoke positive emotions. 

As one of my most popular artworks sold throughout Tasmania, “The Happy Smiley Devil” continues to receive heartfelt support, for which I am truly grateful. 

Bonorong – a Sanctuary for Tasmania’s Wildlife. Tasmania’s largest 24/7 Wildlife Rescue Service and our army of volunteers bring aid to thousands of suffering animals every year.
