My piece ‘Hunting Tiger’ is an interpretation of the amazing ‘Bengal Tiger’.
‘Hunting Tiger’
This big cat is the biggest piece I have produced to date and currently keeps guard over my studio.
The Majestic Bengal Tiger faces many threats in the wild including illegal wildlife trade (Tigers are hunted as trophies and for medicine), habitat loss and conflict with humans. The Bengal Tiger is one of five tiger subspecies. At one time there were eight tiger subspecies but three became extinct during the 20th century. The bengal Tiger is currently listed as endangered on the IUCN Red List, where it has been since 2008. With the current population decreasing, it is estimated that there are less then 3000 tigers left in the wild.
The ‘Hunting Tiger’ in its frame measures 2048mm x 1045mm x 47mm
The piece is reverse painted and gilded entirley in 24kt Gold leaf onto toughened glass.
You can find my ‘Hunting Tiger’ in the shop.
