As one of our most popular artists and master of animal portraiture, artwork by Robert Oxley is as rare as the endangered animals that he paints.

The artist started his new collection with the colour green, explaining that the human eye can distinguish more shades of green than any other colour, perhaps an evolutionary hangover from our hunter gatherer days. He was also deeply fascinated with the idea of camouflage and the way in which evolution has gifted animals the tool of disguise to be able to survive. Painting the big cats in striking greens, Oxley’s patterns mimic their natural habitats, allowing these majestic animals to blend into the wild tapestry of nature and showcase their natural ability to become one with their environment, while their stalking pose reminds us of the untamed elegance of big cats.

Named with different shades of green, this set of boutique editions features a Lion, Tiger, and a Leopard, all painted in Robert’s signature style. Many of Oxley’s pieces skilfully blend elements of surrealism and expressionism, infusing each piece with energy and emotion. His expressive brushwork is energetic and fluid, giving his paintings a sense of movement and spontaneity as his captivating portraits feature wild animals created through intense patterns and psychedelic colour. This loose style adds to the emotional impact of his artwork, giving life and movement to the animals in a stalking pose, while contrasting with the fixed stare of the eyes. His ability to capture the essence and character of the animals he paints in unmatched, creating an enchanting visual experience that celebrates the beauty, power, and mystique of the animals we share the planet with.
