Huntress
1988
oil, 11 1⁄2" x 15 3⁄4"

I was once advised against painting a killing or blood-and-guts scene but sometimes you just have to do it. At least with this leopard and its gazelle kill, there is not too much evidence of gore. She will drag her prey into deep cover or up a tree to prevent other predators or scavengers from stealing it.
