Tiger is the King of the jungle! Its exceptional strength and ferocity are equally matched by its beauty and grace making the tiger an incredible inhabitant of the Earth and representative of balance.

Fascinated by their size, strength and beauty, Matthew Smith has had a deep love for these magnificent creatures since childhood. Provoked by the threat of their extinction, he drew inspiration to capture and share, with his paintbrush, the essence of these majestic creatures who deserve to be truly seen and acknowledged with the respect, adoration and compassion they deserve. As one can see, Matthew Smith skillfully and intently infuses his paintings with the spirit of the subjects he paints. The observer looks into the tiger's eyes as the tiger looks backs into theirs unveiling the connection of oneness that we can find in all living things. Take some time to see through the eyes of "Vanishing Majesty".
