    Stunning, this is so life like it could be a photo. Perfect, amazing, Love it.

  • Avril Brand

    Thanks barnsis. Most wildlife artists would probably not detail the background so much so that the focus is on the animals. But my old imagination took over again and I could not resist painting a ‘kopje’ (rock hill) in the background.

    Avril this is a stunning painting, and what a huge work it must have been. I have a pencil drawing of fighting zebras in my portfolio, but nothing on the scale of this magnificent painting. You have such a wonderful feel for wildlife, your love of it shows through!

    Your zebra drawing is beautiful, Estelle! It takes a lot of thought to capture that moment and you did it perfectly.
