Throughout mankinds existence the tiger has fueled our most primal imaginations. They are the invincible stalkers of the forests, both beautiful and deadly. In our myths and legends they have served as both mankinds ally and antagonist. The tiger has played a part in the mythology of nearly all of the indigenous cultures from the Asian continent, and the powerful imagery of this predator has permeated into the common psyche of mankind across the globe.
Tigers are one of the most easily recognized animals on the planet, yet in recent centuries they have been disappearing from our world at an alarming rate. Through over hunting, habitat destruction and poaching, the encroachment of man has pushed the whole species of tigers to the brink of extinction. Several species have already become extinct with others in extreme danger. Conservation steps are being taken to preserve the population left in the wild, but more needs to be done if there is to be a future in our world for these truly magnificent creatures. The Tiger Series is a celebration of the raw power, grace and majesty that is the tiger of our legends, as well as a call to keep the species from becoming nothing more than a myth.
In response to this call, a portion of the sales from this series will be donated to various conservation groups in support of their ongoing efforts in tiger conservation and educational programs in Asia and around the world.
Thanks for the comment. I'm glad you like it. The original painting is actually pretty close to true to life dimensions for a tiger. That is one big noggin.
I'm glad you like them. It's a mix of watercolors, inks and colored pencils.
I've had quite a few people ask if it was pastel. I think that it is due to the
blended effect of the converging mediums.
Thanks for your comment and your faves, I really appreciate it. - Brad

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
