Tiger

$200.00

26 x 30

Acrylic painting featuring a bright orange tiger in front of a dark green background. The tiger appears to be slinking toward the viewer with glaring eyes. Thick modeling paste mixed with the acrylic paint allows the tiger’s stripes to become three dimensional and lifelike. The rear of the tiger is a darker orange, alluding to shadows beyond.
