Description

"From a tiny goldfish to an awesome grizzly, Seerey-Lester depicts a variety of animals.

"With each animal, he takes care to portray its unique personality.

"A cougar, proud and independent, gazes out over the landscape from high above.

"A pack of wolves emerges from a dense blizzard to confront the viewer directly with their intelligent eyes.

"Two snowy egrets dance gracefully on the water at sunset.

"Through Seerey-Lester’s work, the viewer gains an immediate sense of the power and the beauty of a world where wildlife still reigns supreme.

"Every painting Seerey-Lester does id based on detailed studies of wildlife in its natural habitat.

"But it is his skill as an artist that takes Seerey-Lester’s paintings beyond mere recordings of nature and turns them into compelling statements of the wonder to be found in the wilderness.

"Each painting is carefully designed to lead the viewer’s eye into the scene, as if the viewer were actually there, with the artists – face to face with nature."
