Eye of the Tiger Canvas Art - Tiger Woods by Chris Tutty

The Eye of the Tiger

Artist: Chris Tutty
Dimensions: 30 x 40 inches

Description

In the dynamic 30 x 40-inch painting titled The Eye of the Tiger, Chris Tutty captures the unparalleled focus, drive, and legacy of golf legend Tiger Woods. This striking piece juxtaposes two powerful images: a close-up of Tiger's intense, determined gaze and a depiction of his iconic swing in his signature red shirt — a symbol of his dominance on Sundays throughout his career.

The background features the piercing eyes of a tiger, seamlessly blended with Tiger Woods’ own expression, creating a symbolic reflection of his nickname and spirit. Tutty’s meticulous airbrush technique brings out stunning realism, from the texture of Tiger’s skin to the gleam of his Nike cap and the subtle movement in the tiger’s fur. Every detail embodies precision, mirroring the athlete’s own mastery of his sport.

The Eye of the Tiger isn’t just a portrait; it’s a celebration of resilience, strength, and unrelenting pursuit of greatness — qualities that have defined Tiger Woods both on and off the course.

ORIGINAL WORKS

Each original painting is unique and a one-of-a-kind creation. A great amount of time and detail goes into each piece of art, from hand-painted brush strokes in acrylic and oil medium, to the unique art of airbrushing done with only the best of paints, Crea-tex Auto-Air Colors, and House of Kolors Automotive Paint. Aspects of geological layering, almost like sedimentary rock, are imparted with mixed mediums such as metallics, gold and silver flaking, coppers and iron magnesium powders, glass resins, pearls, and industrial candy coats. Some masterpieces also incorporate sculptural elements like molding paste, crackling, and organic material to create depth and a dimensional, embossed image that leaps off the canvas.

ARTIST PROOFS

Artist Proofs are created using the same attention to detail and materials as the original. The process begins with a professional photograph of the original painting by Rob Ryan of Render DC. This image is digitally remastered and color balanced, then printed and stretched on canvas as a guide. From there, it is re-airbrushed to restore the vibrant colors and depth of the original. Elements such as molding paste, pearls, metallic flakes, and neon paints are incorporated before being sealed with glass resins. Each proof is unique, essentially a new painting based on the original, offered at a more accessible price point.
