Shangri - La - Oil On Canvas - 80 x 80 cm - £3000

Shangri-La presents a dreamlike refuge — a landscape suspended between reality and myth. A reclining leopard rests against a backdrop of mountains and palms, embodying calm within an expansive setting.

Through the formal language of postage design, the painting compresses paradise into a singular, intimate frame. This one-of-a-kind oil painting continues Pete Hawkins’ exploration of travel, symbolism and the idea of distant sanctuary.
