#panthera tigris
#repost @gltangshuo Tangshuo (Liverpool, England, b. China, 1987-). I am interested in the feline and canine representation in this artist’s work.
My friend John Baumlin is an absolutely incredible artist (and person!). His work has appeared in many publications, galleries, and museums and I think it should appear here as well. He tells me he’s working on a website, but doesn’t have one yet, so I can’t link you to him directly.
John is a naturalist to the core, and his work reflects his passion for and understanding of nature and it’s various denizens. Having the chance to watch his paintings come to life (I was able to see “Wake Up Running” in various stages as he worked on it) has been an honor, and I can tell you that no photograph can do his work justice! (Though I think this is true of any original artwork.)
Until you have the chance to see his work in person, I hope this post, featuring a select few of his pieces, will do!
In order:
“Wake Up Running” 24" x 36" oil on linen
