"Have you ever heard lions at night? The primal thrill of the first time I heard the low guttural growls is the inspiration for Night Patrol. We were staying in a remote tented camp when we awoke around midnight to the low grunts and bellows of lions echoing across the plains. I immediately imagined the coalition of powerful, battle scarred lions, which we saw at dusk the previous day, patrolling their riverside domain.
Africa and its wildlife can bond deeply to ones soul, she is imbued with never ending stories and a timeless drama. I believe art can be transformative, connecting us with nature's magic and beauty. My goal as an artist is to capture these experiences with brush strokes of deep emotion, allowing the viewer to reconnect with the thrill of wild places."
The extraordinary wildlife and sparse sculptural beauty of the African landscape create a breathtaking and inspiring vista. Silhouetted by the brilliant sunset, the coalition of lions begin their nightly patrol of the pride's riverside domain.
