Fireball Monkeys

The Golden Lion Tamarin Monkey has a thick flamboyant coat that splays out of their faces and bodies....giving them an explosive look of being on fire!  I painted this family group on a bright spring green background. 

Fireball Monkeys is on an 18 x 36 gallery wrap canvas.

    Thanks Cindy.....monkeys are tough to paint.....lots of fur and very large intelligent expressive eyes that's difficult to capture.....
