Hamish Mackie’s bronze leopard sculptures are an extraordinary collection of Big Cat studies. One of the African Big Five game animals, Hamish was lucky enough to observe them at Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya.

Hamish has sculpted the leopard in a series of characteristic poses, which show the power, stealth and agility of this magnificent animal.

Hamish’s life size Leopard Climbing Tree displays an anatomical correctness in his muscular build and a striking sense of the panther’s spirit beneath. It is available as a limited edition sculpture and would provide an arresting focal point to any substantial outside space.

Big Cats are one of my favourite subjects to sculpt. This Leopard Life Size Climbing Tree was sculpted in my studio, using research material I have gathered from my trips to Africa. It took approximately two weeks to make the armature and sculpt in clay, and three months to cast at the foundry. This sculpture was exhibited on Oxford Street, London, during the Olympics in 2012.

    Big Cats Sculptures by Hamish Mackie

    From the Paleolithic people to the ancient Greeks, from the pre-Raphelites to contemporary times, artists throughout history have depicted Big Cats. The largest members of the feline family have inspired Rubens, Bugatti, Delacroix, Puget, Stubbs, Scott, Ernst and Klimt. It is not hard to see why. The sheer power and strength of these animals is remarkable, and artists have celebrated them in paintings, etchings, ceramics and sculpture.

    Making Lion Sculptures at Lewa

    In February this year, I returned to what feels like my second home, Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Northern Kenya. It is here that my sculpting began in 1996, so it is a very special place for me. Lewa's founders, the conservationists Ian and Jane Craig, are great friends and have been enormously supportive of my work over the years.
