My painting from the series “Wildlife. Big Cats” is dedicated to a beautiful creature ocelot. The number of these bright, graceful cats is regularly decreasing. The ocelot’s habitat is prone to fragmentation and loss. This leads to the death of cats from hunger. Traffic accidents have become a serious threat lately as ocelots try to move outside their habitat and collide with vehicles. In the Atlantic Forest in northeastern Argentina, it suffers from deforestation and wildlife poaching. In the 60s and 70s, the fur trade was a thriving business and this led to serious exploitation of felines such as the ocelot and jaguar. In the 1960s, ocelot skins were among the most popular in the United States. In 1986, the European Economic Community banned the import of ocelot skins, and in 1989 the ocelot was included in Appendix I to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. However, the hunt for ocelots for skins continues and continues to pose a serious threat to ocelot survival. Another threat to the ocelot is their domestication as pets. Kittens are caught and their mothers are killed. Despite the fact that it is prohibited in several countries, the pet trade persists. In some parts of Central and South America, ocelots are still sold in the markets. People should stop this madness so that the ocelot can be seen not only on the paintings but in wildlife.

Eleonora Taranova was born in 1971, in Ukraine. Fleeing the war, she appeared in Denmark where she is based now. As a child, Eleonora lived in a house with animals and observed their behavior. She learned to portray the emotions and movements of pets on her own since there was no art school in the town. After working as a teacher at a higher school for over 20 years, she quit her job for health reasons and took up painting as a hobby. Now she works as a full-time artist. As the main topic of her art, she has chosen animals for the last 13 years. Inspired by the rock carvings' coloristic and the works of Rembrandt, Francis Bacon, Mikhail Vrubel, Franz Mark, Eleonora tries to bring the idea of empathy and respect to a living being.
