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. 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.

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 turtle. 

The traditional colours of the animal are overthrown by exciting vibrant shades, transforming it into an “ethereal, astral” being through his kaleidoscopic use of colour and form. The strong rainbow shades contrast beautifully with the white background.
