Some time back I posted the series of book covers these originally graced but here are better scans of just the artwork. That man has a talent for capturing bodies in action!
That second painting is for THE BEASTS OF TARZAN... which I just happen to be reading again right now for the first time in some 40 years. Tarzan -- bound to the sacrificial stake in a village of cannibals -- is saved in the nick of time (naturally!) by his ferociously loyal "pack" of jungle creatures, led by Akut the ape and Sheeta the panther.
Superb visions of the Ape Man and his world!
