JACK GRAHAM<br />
‘ I chose this image of Jack purely as it suited the<br />
compositional requirements of the painting. He is<br />
bursting into the scene from the right-hand edge,<br />
along with Castagna, Baker and Soldo to create a<br />
dynamic rush of energy that draws our eye directly<br />
into the painting. Pure artistic license here. The edges<br />
of the painting are so important in engaging the viewer<br />
and inviting us in. Note the line from both ends of the<br />
canvas, with players in the foreground trailing back<br />
and in, all the way to Bachar in the middle floating<br />
above the central circle of players around the Skipper.<br />
Bachar is looking down at them so our eye, after<br />
zooming in from the edges, leads to him and is then<br />
reflected down to the heart of the painting.’<br />

JASON CASTAGNA<br />
‘ As with Graham, this image was chosen as it perfectly<br />
frames the right-hand edge of the painting. His<br />
diagonal pose is so dynamic as he leans into the<br />
scene, drawing our eye with him towards the action<br />
in the centre of the scene. It also symbolises his third<br />
quarter goal in <strong>2020</strong> that brought the Tigers within<br />
striking distance of the Cats and led to the eventual<br />
onslaught in the last quarter that overran Geelong.’<br />
