Original Description
Harry M. Pettit’s Little Red Squirrel 17 captures a moment of delightful spontaneity, portraying a vibrant red squirrel mid-movement with remarkable dynamism and charm. Executed in Pettit’s signature expressive style, the artwork blends realism with painterly brushstrokes, lending vitality to the spirited creature. The warm tones of russet fur contrast beautifully against softer background hues, evoking a sense of woodland whimsy. Pettit, active in the early-mid 20th century, was celebrated for his animal studies that balanced naturalism with emotional immediacy. While not a revolutionary figure in art history, his works remain beloved for their accessibility and skillful depiction of wildlife, occupying a niche akin to the British sporting art tradition. Little Red Squirrel 17 exemplifies his ability to transform ordinary wildlife encounters into enduring visual poetry.
For interiors, this piece thrives in cozy, nature-inspired spaces—think a study with wooden accents or a sunlit breakfast nook adorned with botanical prints. The squirrel’s russet tones pair elegantly with earthy color schemes (olive greens, taupe, or warm cream walls), while its playful energy suits casual or eclectic decor. Opt for a medium-sized frame (approx. 16x20 inches) in distressed wood or gilded finishes to enhance its vintage charm. In offices, it adds warmth to minimalist settings when paired with neutral furniture, or becomes a focal point in creative studios alongside other wildlife art. Positioning it at eye level near seating areas invites engagement, mirroring the squirrel’s animated spirit within your space.
