"What makes a dramatic wildlife painting? The answer is as varied as "What makes a good person?" Wildlife painting is no different from any other painting. The drama depends on the choice of subject, arrangement of composition and use of light. Terry Isaac is well suited to telling the story in all of these areas.
When I first saw Terry`s work during an artists` workshop critiquing session and realized he was only 28, I was speechless. Spectacular was the only word I could think of. The sweep of the landscape, the placement of the golden eagle and the play of light and shadow was drama personified. Since then his work has moved into a variety of moods and settings but it has always remained dramatic. - Robert Bateman
