Meet the artist
Seven years ago, after reading a book about giraffes and their relocation during World War II, I painted my first giraffe. That one painting led to 38 more African animals, each laid on thick with a large palette knife.
I work from photos, nature and safari magazines, and I read up on every animal before I start, learning its habits and story. Knowing the subject helps me feel connected to it as I work on the large canvas. The colors come from my own palette and give each piece its brilliance and texture.
Once a painting has dried for a month or more, it is photographed and made into smaller canvas prints, so everyone can enjoy the work at a more affordable price than the large original.
