This is a recent painting of a leopard on Ivorine. This miniature is very small (shown much larger than actual size). The original painting is sold.
I was able to get up close to this cat to study him. He is a part of a sanctuary for big cats that takes in these beautiful animals that have been a part of the fur trade, illegal animal trafficking, abused, or just overgrown exotic pets that can’t be cared for by their owners any longer. He was just amazing (and a little bit feisty! ;) ) – that experience of being able to get up close to him will inspire my work for a long time. :D
Hello Rebecca, what fantastic deep and clear colours. Just love it. It must be an adventure to get so close to him – it is a beautiful cat. Which size is it? Absolutely fantastic work.
I think this is my favourite work from your easel Rebecca. Just amazing depth…
Your love and curiosity of the lovely creatures of the wild is so apparent in your work. This one is no exception. Beautiful…
Another Beauty! Bear hugs, Frankie
