Fauna Is Wildlife Art Rendered with Precision and Warmth

The Fauna is a collection of original designs by Merrilee at Wildflower Art & Design featuring wildlife subjects rendered with precision and warmth. Each piece captures a specific animal in its natural context, from migratory birds to woodland mammals, and is available in a range of sizes and print formats through my online shop.


The work in Fauna doesn't try to document. It tries to feel true. Each piece starts with observation — the way a heron holds itself just before it moves, the particular weight of a deer standing still at the edge of a field — and works toward something that lives between painting and memory. The palette is warm. The edges are considered. Nothing is rushed.


I find that people who are drawn to Fauna want their space to feel inhabited by something quiet and specific. Not a pattern, not a landscape, but an animal with a particular quality of presence. If that's what you're looking for, this is the right collection.

The Animals in Fauna Are Native to the Midwest and Great Lakes

Wildlife subjects include birds, deer, foxes, and more.

My Fauna collection draws from the native wildlife of the Midwest and Great Lakes region. You'll find migratory birds rendered in close study: great blue heron, sandhill crane. Woodland mammals with their own particular stillness: white-tailed deer, red fox. Each piece is devoted entirely to one subject — its posture, its markings, the specific quality of light in the habitat where it lives.


Fauna depicts living creatures in motion and in habitat. Choosing Fauna means wanting the presence of a specific animal: its stillness, its movement, the way it occupies a space. It's not a landscape. It's not a plant reaching toward light. It's a fox, or a heron, or a deer — and you know it's exactly that.

Fauna Designs Are Available in Multiple Formats

Every piece in my Fauna collection can be ordered through my online store in whatever size and format works best for your space. Available formats include fine art paper prints, canvas prints, framed prints, metal prints, and acrylic prints. Each is printed on demand. You choose the format and size when you order, and the print ships directly to you.

Choosing the right print format for wildlife art depends on your wall and room.

Canvas and metal prints tend to feel at home in contemporary or industrial interiors, where the subject can hold its own against harder surfaces. Framed fine art paper prints suit more traditional or editorial rooms — they read like the kind of thing you'd find in a house that's been lived in carefully. Acrylic prints give wildlife subjects a luminous, gallery-ready quality that works particularly well with the detail and depth in Fauna pieces.The same format options are available across the rest of our collections.

Common Questions About the Fauna Collection

  • What animals are depicted in the Fauna collection?

    The Fauna collection features Midwest and Great Lakes native species including great blue heron, sandhill crane, white-tailed deer, and red fox. Each piece focuses on a single subject rendered in a painterly fine-art style, placing the animal in its natural habitat rather than a photographic or documentary setting.

  • What print formats are available for Fauna wildlife art?

    Fauna prints are available through Fine Art America in fine art paper, canvas, framed prints, metal, and acrylic formats. Buyers choose their preferred format and size at the time of order, and the piece ships directly to them printed on demand.

  • How does Fauna differ from the Flora and Wildflower Walls collections?

    Fauna depicts living wildlife — birds and mammals in their natural habitat. Flora and Wildflower Walls focus on botanical subjects: plants, flowers, and growing things. A buyer choosing Fauna wants the presence of a specific animal rather than a landscape or botanical composition.

  • Is Fauna wildlife art suitable for a living room or home office?

    Yes. Wildlife art at a considered scale creates a focal point in a room. Fine art paper and framed prints suit home offices and reading rooms particularly well; canvas and metal prints work well in living spaces. Each piece is available in sizes suited to any wall.
