ARCHIVE – WILDLIFE ART
My love of African wildlife and its people runs through all my art. A need to convey the ‘raw’ beauty and emotion of my subject matter is my main aim. I donate a percentage of the proceeds from my wildlife artworks to selected wildlife charities. The charities I currently support are Project Rhino KZN and The David Shepherd Wildlife Fund (DSFW).
