This original oil painting depicts a tiger swimming through calm green water on a warm day. Only the upper part of the animal’s body is visible above the surface, while its powerful movement continues beneath. Tigers are natural swimmers and often enter rivers and lakes to cool down in hot climates....

Ira Whittaker

About the Artist

Ira Whittaker

United Kingdom

My creative journey began with painting on glass, concrete, and wood — experimenting with texture and surfaces. Over time, I found my true passion in working with oil on canvas, which allows me to express both emotion and detail in a way that feels deeply personal.

I’m especially like to paint animals — particularly cats — and also female figures. There’s something intuitive and emotionally rich in both subjects that speaks to me. As a passionate traveler, I also paint landscapes and seascapes inspired by places that leave a mark on my heart. I believe an artist should not limit themselves to a narrow theme — each painting is a window into both the world I see and the inner world I carry.

My path from amateur to professional has been slow, natural, and filled with curiosity. Through my work, I hope to share a quiet connection — with nature, with beauty, and with the emotions that live between stillness and movement.

I also believe that once a painting is finished, it already has an owner, the two just have to meet. I hope you find your perfect match here! Thank you for visiting and enjoy my shop. My paintings are in private collections all over the world -UK, USA, Canada, Europa, Asia.
