This pastel is of a silver bengal cat. I tried to capture the
life and beauty of this exotic cat. My goal was to capture the movement of the

wishes. This piece measures “16 x 20”. Prints are available for this pastel
piece. — Wishing Bengal

Bats are adorable amazing creatures. I tried to do a
fine art piece through a digital medium to capture a little
brown bat swooping after a moth. The little brown bat had
a huge population but in recent years have suffered greatly
because of the fungal disease called white-nose syndrome.
Today, organizations are trying to work to protect and
conserve this species — Little-Brown-Bat

A part of the big cat series, “Don’t Blink” is painted in oil and is more of a monochromatic
piece. The cheetah is an amazing athlete with its lean muscled body. I painted this piece to
freeze a moment during its speedy run. Meant to be similar to a horse racing pose, the
cheetah is flying through the grass unhindered and focused. The color and spots camouflage
the cheetah as it passes. I titled this painting “Don’t Blink” because if you blink this speedy cat
will vanish before your eye. It may vanish do to its speed but also because it is a vulnerable
species. The canvas measures 24” x 48”. The original painting is available for sale at $5000. — Don’t Blink

The Pallas cat is a small wild cat from central Asia. They
have an unusual look with a squarish head, and have a thick coat because
they live in a cold climate. Unfortunately their species is considered

measures approximately 11” x 14”. The original is available for sale at
$450. — Look Before You Hide (Pallas Cat)

A small India ink painting of an orca under the waves. I created this artwork by using only three
ink colors: black, white, and blue. The light reflects around dancing on the top of the orca’s
back. I painted this piece after a voting from my fans. They voted for a sea creature so I
decided to paint an orca. This piece measures 5”x 7”. The original is for sale at $100
unframed. — Seafaring Orca

The river otter is a fun and playful creature. I have seen them in the wild when fishing or along
the rivers in the mountains/ Painted in India ink, this artwork captures a moment when the
otter looks back before returning to the water. This was an experiment of doing water and
capturing different textures in ink. It measures approximately 9” x 12” and is available for sale
at $450. — Pause Before Play

A 16”x 20” pastel piece of the Amur leopard. Amur Leopards are critically endangered and
very rare in the wild. Here the snow is slowly melting and you see the path the leopard took
down the hill. It is composed so you are just catching a glimpse of this beautiful cat as it
passes by. I desired to freeze a moment of the Amur Leopard that may vanish from our sight
both figuratively and literally. This is piece is available for sale at $900 unframed. — Life Is Elusive

This is an India ink painting of a mustang I adopted from the BLM. A wild spirit at heart, she
came to my home completely untamed. Eventually by working with her we came to an
understanding and she is now tamed and trained. However, her wild spirit has never left her.
This piece captures that life and nature with her mane flying. I used some metallic ink color to
convey a sense of permanence with beauty. This measures 11”x 14” and the original is not
available for sale. — Untamed Angel The Mustang

The snow leopard is a rare and beautiful animal. I love doing pieces of this animal and this is
one of my earlier ones. The snow leopard is looking at you as it relaxes on the rock. It’s stare
captures your heart. Done in pastel, many different colors are portrayed in the white of the fur.

11” x 14” and the original is available for sale at $500 unframed. — Endangered Soul

A pastel piece of my horse I owned while growing up named Lucky. She was a crossbreed of
an Arabian and a Quarter horse. I wanted to do a portrait memorializing her after her passing.
She was a really well behaved horse that I treasured and we used to say she had a deer-like
face. It is 16”x20” artwork and not available for sale. — Lucky The Quarab

Peering at you from the water, this bottlenose dolphin was painted in oil. Originally, I wanted to
do an almost fantasy sky that meets and was reflected in the water. However, I changed the
design to be more realistic. With a cloudy sky barely breaking in the distance your eye is lead
to the dolphin in the front. This piece measures 16”x 20” and is currently available for sale at
$960 unframed. — Splattered Fun

An oil painting of a black jaguar in the rainforest. I painted this piece to evoke a peaceful, calm
emotion. I wanted to portray the panther as resting, yet disturbed slightly by your stare. He
slightly opens his eyes to get a look at what awoke him. When stressed, please look at this
piece, take a breath, and relax. The dimensions are 24” x 48”. This piece is currently available
for sale at $5000. — Do Not Disturb

Show Me How Mama” is a pastel piece expressing a mother snow leopard with her cub. In

between the mother and her cub. This piece measures approximately 20” x 16”. The original is
available for $900 unframed. — Show Me How Mama

Watching you from afar, this a mountain lion is rarely seen up close and personal in the wild.
This piece shows a cougar in its natural environment. Cougars are the largest cat you can see
in the wild on our American continent. My aim was to paint a moment where you can see the
life and beauty of this elusive cat — a glimpse where your eyes lock with the mountain lion’s
and you see into its soul. The dimensions of this piece are 24” x 48”. The original is available
for sale at $5000. — Lion Of The West

placed together measuring approximately 24”x 90” and is available for sale
only as a set at $9000. — Growing Up

The extraordinary close up pastel painting of a snow leopard’s face. This piece
is meant to capture the life and soul of this vulnerable animal species. Snow
leopards are intelligent, beautiful animals that deserve protection to live their
lives to the fullest. As an artist who believes in the intelligence and emotions
of animals, I worked tirelessly to capture the small details of this individual
snow leopard. You cannot escape the gaze of this beautiful animal as you are so
close you can see the small hairs on its nose. This pastel measures approximately
14”x11”. The original has sold but prints are available. — Vanishing Soul

The lynx is a very elusive cat to see in the wild. This is a portrait of one in pastel. I saw a lynx a
number of times when traveling in Alaska at Denali National Park. Larger than a bobcat, the
lynx is a hardy, tough cat. The color of their coat is a bit plain compared to other cats but it is a
thick and beautiful. I wanted to express the grace of this lynx with this piece. The piece
measures approximately 11”x 14”. The original is available for sale at $400 unframed. — Stately Grace

themselves. This piece measures approximately 16” x 20”. The original is available for sale at

The piece depicts a snow leopard looking over its mountainous landscape. This was a
completely monochromatic piece painted on a black board with white India ink only. The only
color in this piece was done on the eye and a little on the nose. I painted this piece to capture
the fragility and beauty of this animal in its natural landscape. The contrast between the black
and white portrays the dramatic and majestic atmosphere. This painting measures 12” x 9”.
The original is available for sale at $450 unframed. — Endangered Life

This ink painting is of a Jaguar attacking a Caiman. On this muddy river bank the
Caiman was hidden beneath the muddy water when the Jaguar pounced down on it. There is
vigorous battle and after awhile the Jaguar finally gets the upper hand. This painting is meant
to show the power between two great predators and the need for survival. It measures 16” x
20” and the original is for sale for $900. — The Clash

This pastel piece depicts a male Amur Tiger getting a drink of water. My aim was to capture a
moment of peace in this powerful feline’s life. Water, the source of life reflects the image of the
tiger with the ripples distorting its reflection. This symbolizes how the future of this species is
distorted and uncertain. The Amur tiger is an endangered species that has every right to live
its life. This piece is meant to capture the essence of that life. I wanted to capture life itself
with all these different sources in nature. The sun, plants, and water with the reflection are
meant to show this. It measures approximately 15” x 16”. It is available for sale at $ 650
unframed. — Tranquil Ferocity
