Leopard face emerging from a black ground canvas painting

A leopard's face comes out of total darkness, pale green eyes fixed straight ahead and long white whiskers fanning across the black.

Only the head and one front paw are lit; the shoulders break up into dark rosettes that melt back into the ground. The fur is painted in flat, separate patches of tan, gold, umber and grey rather than blended strokes, a faceted style that looks almost graphic up close. The paw steps over the lower edge of the black field onto the white margin of the canvas, with a soft grey shadow beneath it, so the cat seems to be walking out of the picture.

HA#229 is an original hyperrealist animal painting showing leopard head and paw emerging from a black background, hand-painted in acrylic on canvas. It is painted to order in any size; the 14 standard sizes run from 20×24 in (51×61 cm) to 60×80 in (153×203 cm). Painting takes about 10 days and delivery 5–7 days by DHL, FedEx or UPS; the minimum order is one piece.

The white margin around the black field acts like a built-in mount, so the canvas looks finished on pale paint and sits easily with cream bouclé, light oak and rattan; on a dark wall that border effect is lost. The leopard looks straight out, so hang it facing a seat or doorway: across from a desk chair, beyond the last stool of a bar or opposite a sofa, where its gaze meets the people in the room.

Specified for gallery & retail, restaurant & bar, home office and living room; it reads as moody and bold.

These share its palette, format and surface, so the three hang as a set: a run along a hotel corridor, a pair either side of a bed with this one between, or one per suite on the same floor.
