Out on the Plains, Painted in 1983

1983

About the Item

Image dimensions: 43cm x 77cm Framed dimensions: 61.7cm x 92.6cm Signed lower right. David Shepherd's original oil painting depicts two majestic male lions in the African bush. David’s technique of combining photorealism with his broad impressionist style and his impeccably accurate palette, instantly strikes a chord with the viewer, but above all it is his love of the wildlife that shines through in his original oil paintings, creating an instant empathy for them with his audience. David Shepherd is regarded by many as being the worlds leading wildlife artist. He started his artistic career as an aviation artist, and an early commission for the RAF took him to Kenya where David painted his first wildlife subject and he never looked back. David's distinctive style stems from a personal attachment with the animals of Kenya. His impasto brushwork in the foreground contrasted with the detailed and intricate depiction of the wild animals highlights the details of the rich African terrain and the fragility of the animals within.
