Season - 15
Episode - 07
Filmed on Location at - Halls Gap, Victoria, Australia
Steve Morvell is a highly acclaimed environmental artist, dedicated to raising human awareness of the beauty and fragility of wildlife and the habitats in which we co-exist. A deep need to understand animals on their own terms takes Steve to many wild places researching his art. His powerful and evocative work is exhibited around the world winning many major art awards and hangs in private, public and corporate collections.
His art has been widely featured through Television and radio including an ABC Wildscreen documentary. He has also featured in books including 'Fifty Australian Artists', 'Who's who of Australian Visual Artists', in many magazines and on Australian Postage Stamps. His was the first wildlife art ever to be featured in 'Australian Artist' magazine where he appeared as the cover artist back in 1987.
Steve Morvell's deep need to be with animals compels Steve to study his subjects in the field, often spending long hours observing animals in their natural habitat. Steve's artworks capture delightfully intimate encounters with shy and elusive species. His recognition of the spirit of the bush and its creatures leaves a lasting impression on the viewer.
Working in a wide variety of mediums, Steve Morvell believes that to do justice to the subject and to produce truly great art, one must be openminded in approach and method of portrayal. He carefully selects the most appropriate and dynamic medium for each idea. Steve's unique works encompass pastel - drawing and charcoal paintings, pencil drawing, brushed carbon ink, pen, watercolour, acrylic and even enamels and bronze on large scale outdoor works. In the field of wildlife art he has a reputation as an innovator and his works are aimed squarely at one thing........ giving the viewer a real sense of 'being there'!

I love that, along with his art, he’s working at raising awareness for the wildlife he immortalizes.

[@maldoori238]

Simply wonderful and inspiring. I watched the video again. Such a joy to watch and learn from. Bravo 👏

[@hipdogdsv]

Oh my gosh! The Aussie sealions are beautiful! Thank you for making us aware of them. 10k is far too few.

[@friedricengravy6646]

I enjoy watching this show so much...I find random painting videos on youtube, but with CIYL, I can always count on Graeme & the gang to turn us on to artists that are new for me. They also give equal attention to a variety of styles. I watch this more than any 'prime-time' or major network television. Thank you very much for all of the education, fun, & entertainment. Safe travels from America!!

[@lisafayepranger8561]

[@rhondawillington9214]

A wonderful Artist and a fanastic human being committed to helping our beautiful wildlife, it was a pleasure to hear of his travels and art. But disappointed that we did not get to see much art or artistic explanation being done at all. Hope you are on the mend Graeme and wishing you a speedy recovery.

[@maireadharkin5124]

Steve you are a very gifted artist TFS Mairead in IRELAND

[@PowellStephen]

Steve's gallery is a must see if you are in Halls Gap. If you're not, go there it's worth it!

[@silvanocece1365]

It's fantastic to share these experiences ✍️🎨👌

[@jamesholder13]

Awesome show! Amazing work Steve!

[@sotiredofrules9258]

Hi I am Steve Morvell and for all of the people canning Graeme for not showing more of my art technique.... that was my choosing not his. Too many people imagine technique is what will make them an artist when the truth is to be found in the artist's motivation. It is the heart which will drive a true artist to learn from whatever the do and experience. Just go am take a few risks....keep an eye on what happens and teach yourself to learn from 'mistakes' as they are usually your best teachers.

[@ColourinyourlifeAu]

Thank you Steve, this may sound a little silly but you are coming to the moon with me. I will explain in the next week or so. But the whole series is going to land on the moon, Graeme

[@mariamaragonesjust2150]

Me encanta estive,y que valiente,que suerte de poder estar tan cerca de los animales,nunca he visto un canguro,muy buena entrevista,chulisimos cuadros ,Gracias😍

[@paulre8272]

Сool artist...great show!!!!!! many thanks from Ukraine!

[@maldoori238]

Hi Graeme hope you are recovering nicely and quickly. I am sorry I won't be able to attend your art work as I will be in LA on the 30th of June and for a couple of week!

[@maldoori238]

Many thanks for this wonderful video and amazing artist. So much to learn from. What is this arm rest and where do you get it from?

[@chandraws4421]

inspirational...i'm going to draw a kangaroo now

[@carolinebaker9704]

Beautiful work but disappointing not to see more of his process of how he used the pastels and how he produced his artwork. Never seen so many pastels laid out! But we didn't really see him use them.

[@vannystar1939]

When was Steve Morvel born because it doesn't say anywhere on the internet and I need to know for my homework?

[@wendyaltona283]

Beautiful art but no showing of his art techniques - very disappointing. Wendy Altona.

[@ANDYCHAT500]

I agree this channel is all about sharing tips and techniques so we all can develop not just the ones who go to the 'masterclass' !

[@autumngrace8541]

He did give some knowledge about his techniques to get 3D effect, I think he gave a lesson in being present in the essence of nature. What we do with it is up to each individual.

[@sotiredofrules9258]

Maybe I think some people put way too much emphasis on the how of art rather than the why of painting.....which is after all what propels an artist through their lifetime

[@KatMa664]

Beautiful work. However the show is turning out to be more of a commercial been teaching you anything about Art. Talking and talking and talking and very little teaching. All about the artist. I guess if he paid to be on the show that's what he would want you to feature. But I'd like to see how he does what he does.

[@ColourinyourlifeAu]

Thats what he wanted Kathy, the show is the Artists decision, we have just created the platform for them to say what they need to

[@allw00man]

I agree with Kathy, Wendy and others yes there's so much advertising and talking and talking that i have it on mute now and not much of the artist actually doing their work..@@ColourinyourlifeAu

[@ColourinyourlifeAu]

I've got a great idea girls. Instead of me forking out hundreds of thousands of dollars of my own money over the years and getting no support. Maybe you guys could right me a large check so that i wouldn't have to scrap the financial barrel to do this. Its easy when your on the outside and you have no clue how hard this has been to keep together all these years. I have not made a cent in 8 years. I'll look forward to getting the checks from you, Graeme
