Rex
2025
Rex is a 40 × 40 cm acrylic on canvas from 2025. The square format is one Viviers returns to often for animal portraits — its symmetry suits the directness of his approach. Rex is a personality-led painting: the subject rendered with the kind of attention and warmth that turns an animal portrait into a genuine character study. Viviers' mature brushwork is confident and economical, giving the canvas a presence that holds at a distance as well as it rewards up close. The Pretoria-based South African artist has developed a distinctive voice in animal painting — Rex is a strong example of it. The original is available for acquisition.
