Animal oil paintings and horse wall art with real texture
Our animal oil paintings celebrate the energy and grace of the natural world. Galloping horses, golden cranes, butterflies and birds are printed on canvas and hand-finished with acrylic paint, so manes, feathers and wings gain depth and movement. It is animal wall art with character, for anyone who loves horses, wildlife or a touch of nature indoors.

Frequently asked questions
Are these paintings hand-painted?
Each design starts as a high-quality print on canvas. Our artists then add acrylic paint by hand to selected areas with palette knives and brushes, so the texture is real and every piece is slightly different.
Which animal paintings work above a sofa?
Wide horse paintings and panoramic designs with cranes or birds fill a long wall well. As a guide, choose artwork about two-thirds the width of your sofa.
Are animal paintings suitable for children's rooms?
Yes. Butterflies, birds and colourful animal designs are popular for children's rooms, and our prints and acrylic paints contain no harmful substances.
Do you have 3D animal paintings?
Yes. Our 3D Animal Wall Art sculpts feathers, wings and manes in thick paint.
How long does delivery take, and can I return a painting?
Every painting is made to order and delivered free across the UK within 4–5 weeks. Standard sizes come with unconditional 14-day returns; custom-size orders cannot be returned.
