In the 80’s and 90’s Wendy Arnold was one of the three behind the highly successful fashion label Studibaker Hawk. Arnold’s Fine Art background was the driving force behind the wildly individual signature prints, which were instantly recognisable. The adornment of the female figure remains a constant in her work and Asian imagery and textile design is a consistently strong element of her work. Birds and flowers interweave with gold leaf and the rich patterning to create an evocative combination of the nearly nude and demurely concealed.
