 "Natural Haven of Elephant Unity." This piece, which showcases two elephants standing closely together in a lush, natural setting, holds a special place in my heart. The intimate bond between the elephants is conveyed through their positioning and the detailed brushwork that captures the texture of their skin and the richness of the backdrop. Working predominantly with natural shades of green, brown, and gray, I aimed to create a realistic environment, reminiscent of a forest or savanna.
The inspiration for this painting came from my deep admiration for the gentle giants of the animal kingdom and their strong family bonds. One unique aspect of creating this piece was experimenting with a blend of soft and defined strokes to balance texture and detail, achieving a harmonious and lifelike depiction.
I hope you find this artwork as inspiring and heartwarming as I intended it to be. Thank you for your continued support and interest in my work. Stay tuned for more updates and projects on the horizon.  Measures 16"x8"

Zebra Pair, oil painting, wildlife

     

#Wildlife, #Zebra, #pair, #animals, #BarbaraHaviland.net

I did this painting a while ago.  It is hanging in our home.   I made prints of this one.   I have decided to offer this painting to you.

Available               The painting measures 16"x20" and is done in oils on a canvas wood panel. It is signed

 

The artwork is a detailed painting of two zebras positioned closely side by side. Their black and white stripes are rendered with precision, highlighting the unique patterns that distinguish each zebra. The zebras' heads face opposite directions, one looking leftward and the other rightward, with expressive golden eyes that draw attention. The background is a smooth gradient of warm brown tones, providing a contrasting backdrop that emphasizes the zebras' striking striped coats. The texture of the painting suggests careful brushwork, bringing life and depth to the animals' fur. The  artwork measures 16"x20"

The Leopard is done in oils and is framed.  He was quite a challenge but I think I did well.  He is available for purchase.

One of my students just completed a Leopard and I wanted to do one too.  I just did the face and paws. It is framed in a white frame and he looks as tho he is about to leap out to you.  This is a re-post but I still like this painting.
