You Won't Find the Stars in the Honkytonks and Bars
Located in Atlanta, GA
Evan Jones is a painter based in Atlanta, Georgia. He graduated with a bachelor of fine arts degree in painting from SCAD Atlanta and has exhibited throughout the United States.
Jones's latest exhibition, "Destruction Derby Dreamland," follows upon his solo show from 2021, “Country Store." Here is how one art critic described that exhibition: "Country Store is a very funny celebration of the tropes and fixations of rural Southern life that blessedly avoids using a cudgel of irony or snark to make its points. This is an artist who can enjoy the excesses of homemade advertisements, primitive folk art painting...

Realistic Cheetah Painting, "Love Bite"
Located in San Diego, CA
This is a one of a kind realistic animal oil painting on canvas. Its dimensions are 24'x36"x1.5. It comes unframed. A certificate of authenticity will follow delivery.
This painting depicts two cheetahs and butterflies. The artist uses fine brushwork in this photorealistic style.
Artist statement: I try to incorporate endangered species into my art pieces whenever possible. This particular image of a mother African Leopard and her cub I found to be very eye-catching. The dynamic criss-cross of their bodies created a perfect way to draw the eye in and let it wander amidst the spots and soft fur. I’m a color enthusiast and adding the magenta azaleas into the background created a beautiful mix of pinks and golden fur. I needed to add another species that was facing habitat loss and decreasing populations so I chose the Blue Morpho butterfly that is suffering from over-collection due to its rare beauty. The iridescent blue sheen of the wings complimented the blue green color of the leopard's eyes beautifully. - Kelley Sutphin

Horse Paintings, Giraffe Paintings, Dog Paintings and Other Animal Paintings on 1stDibs
Shopping for animal paintings?
Animal paintings depict the beauty and power of nature in an elegant way that can complement any room. Interacting with animals has long captured the imagination and has been interpreted in diverse artistic media.
Some of the oldest works of art have included animals, such as a cave painting found in Indonesia dating back more than 45,500 years that shows a wild pig in red ocher pigment. Animals have continued to appear in every era and style of art, from realism to Pop art and everything in between.
Some paintings portray animals in their natural habitat, highlighting the majesty of wild creatures roaming the plains, forests and jungles. These paintings often feature deer, tigers, wild mustangs, giraffes and other wildlife. Others focus on domestic animals such as dogs — pay a visit to the Museum of the Dog if you don’t believe us — as well as cats and how they interact with the world and their owners.
Picking the right animal painting for a room — as well as knowing how to arrange your new wall art — can take time. But, in the end, it will tastefully reflect your interests and passions. While an expansive landscape painting helps open up a small space, hanging a horse painting in a den shows a love for equine culture and can invite interesting conversation.
There is animal art to fit every collection on 1stDibs. Explore a wide selection of animal paintings and animal prints in a range of styles to match any home or office.
