Zebra!

October 1, 2014 Meredith Gillespie

Zebra is one of my oldest and most popular prints. I created this image back in graduate school at Hopkins for the National Aquarium in Baltimore. I studied the zebras at the American Museum of Natural History in NYC when creating this image so if you ever there - you may notice some the likeness..;).

The original is a 5” x 7” watercolor. However, Zebra has been reproduced up to 4 x 3 feet tall and all the way down to 1 inch on notecards. The last request was for him to be printed on a giclee canvas which turned out really well. He is a quite versatile chap.

I am a classically trained artist whose work is held in private collections around the country. My artistic career began as a medical illustrator in 2003. After spending ten years focused on the fast-paced med-legal illustration world, I rekindled my lifelong passion for creative art in 2013 when I began creating custom works for a variety of clients. Pet portraits quickly became a popular item for clients. In addition to these paintings, my range includes a wide variety of animal drawings, rural landscapes and extensive studies of the human figure.
