Stand Behind Me

A mother zebra stands in front of her baby in calm defiance, shielding him from a towering wall of fire.

For this piece, the artist was inspired by the threat of humanity on wildlife and animal habitat loss. While efforts are being made to section of areas for wildlife, such as national parks in Africa, the destructive forces of mankind and climate change push back against the animals nestled safely within. Animal organizations and national parks fight daily to keep the land their animals desperately need, amidst corporations wanting it for themselves.

The mother zebra stands still among the flames licking at her belly, protecting her foal from the imminent danger threatening their survival. The artist was inspired by the love and companionship that can be found between a mother and child, and painted this piece in homage of that bond. As the world whirls around at a hot pace, the mother zebra stands firm in providing a place of safety for her child. This piece holds personal sentiment to the artist, the recognition of what mothers, human or animal, do for their children.

Contemporary Media Artist

Artist Taylor Frost uses stark contrasts, bold colors, and inspiring light to create colorful, eye-catching pieces that draw viewers in.

From the Artist’s Mouth:

My name is Taylor Frost, an 18 year old primarily self-taught digital painter who specializes in colorful expressive art. I have been painting for 7 years now, fitting it in between my other passions. I am a competitive equestrian, namely Eventing, who owns an Irish Sport Horse named Jonty who features in many paintings as a beautiful inspiration. Digital painting works very well for my lifestyle, I can often be seen traveling to competitions around North America with my painting tablet.

I have recently been toying with many different styles of painting including realism, oils, and chalky brushes. No matter the style I always focus on color, energy, light, and emotion. I am on a quest to enter the art world in a big way.

I pride myself in creating detailed, emotional portraits and pieces of both animals and people that evoke feelings of wonder and awe while enhancing the beauty I see in the world . I adore painting endangered animals to raise awareness of their situation. My dream is to be able to create money through my animal paintings to be able to give a portion to efforts that help the very endangered species I paint so that they can be around as a muse for many years. I’d love to see my wildlife work in galleries worldwide, gracing the home of any who would appreciate it. I am also available for custom pieces of any sort, be it portrait, animal, or landscape.

I hope that viewers enjoyed this peek into my life and would like to see more of my work, embarking on this fantastic artistic journey with me.
