As a photographer and artist, I am always seeking to create art that connects with people on a personal level. When I had the opportunity to create an artwork of an Emu riding in the historic Puffing Billy Steam Train, I knew I had landed on a unique and compelling image. To bring this artwork to life, I used props that hold special meaning for me, including a case made by my grandfather and great-grandfather and a camera that was my grandfather’s pride and joy. These sentimental items helped me to create a sense of connection to my family’s history and to honor their legacy in my art. Through this digital artwork, I hope to share the magic and joy of the natural world with others and to invite viewers to look more closely at the animals that share our planet. This image of the Emu riding in the Puffing Billy Steam Train is a testament to the enduring connections between animals and humanity and to the power of art to tell their stories.
