This baby rhino just flopped down in front of us at the zoo. Couldn’t resist capturing his tiredness.

The top bush picture is a collaboration between Sam Cole-Surjan and I. Taken in Tolmey, near Mansfield Australia. Sam supplied the print and I twiddled with it. We swapped two pics so right now she’s twiddling on mine. Good fun. www.cathleentarawhiti.co.nz Featured in Collaborations / Thank you.

Time to reverse I think…... (taken at Luthuli Game Reserve, South Africa). / One of the most distinguishing differences between the white and the black rhino is the shape of the mouth. The white rhino is a grazer and has a square mouth while the black rhino is a browser and has a hooked lip. / / Black rhino

10×14 watercolor enhanced colored pencil. Original unavailable. For most of the 20th century the continental black rhino was the most numerous of all rhino species. Around 1900 there were probably several hundred thousand living in Africa. During the later half of the 20th century their number severely reduced from an estimated 70,000 in the late 1960s to only 10,000 to 15,000 in 1981. In the early 1990s the number dipped below 2500, and in 2004 it was reported that only 2,410 black rhinos remained. According to the International Rhino Foundation, the total African population has since then slightly recovered to 3,610 by 2003. According to a July 2006 report by the World Conservation Union, a recent survey of the West African Black Rhino, which once ranged across the savannahs of western Africa but had dropped to just 10, concluded the subspecies to be extinct. The northern white is soon to join the western black rhino on the extinction list as its last noted numbers were as few as 4. The only rhino that has recovered somewhat from the brink of extinction is the southern white whose numbers now are estimated around 14,500, up from fewer than 50 in the first decade of the 20th Century. The Black Rhinoceros has been pushed to the brink of extinction by illegal poaching for their horn and by loss of habitat. The horn is used in traditional Chinese medicine, and is said by herbalists to be able to revive comatose patients, cure fevers and aid male sexual stamina and fertility. The purported effectiveness of the use of rhino horn in treating any illness has not been confirmed by medical science. In June of 2007, the first-ever documented case of the medicinal sale of black rhino horn in the United States (confirmed by genetic testing of the confiscated horn) occurred at a Traditional Chinese Medicine supply store in Portland, Oregon’s Chinatown. It is used in the Middle East to make ornately carved handles for ceremonial daggers called jambiyas. Demand for these exploded in the 1970s causing the Black Rhinoceros population to decline 96% between 1970 and 1992. To say that this was time consuming would be an understatement. The wrinkles were enough to almost drive me batty.. but I managed to finish this one.. on to the elephant!! Complete 2008

This female black rhino was shot in the Masai Mara in Kenya. / Canon 400d / Canon 100-400mm / ISO 100 / 1/13th Sec / F5.6 / 400mm focal length Taken using a panning technique which involved following the rhino in the view finder and using a slow shutter speed to blur the background.

A pair of Black Rhinos. Like all Rhino species, the Black Rhinoceros is critically endangered mainly because of poaching. It is well known that Rhino Horn is highly prized in the Orient as an aphrodisiac. Another less publicized problem is that Rhino Horn is used to fashion dagger handles for wealthy men in Yemen, just across the Red Sea from East Africa.

All rhinos are endangered, so many having been massacred by poachers for their horns. Fortunately there are now many game parks in various African countries endeavouring to bring numbers back up to levels where the threat of extinction is diminished. These creatures are truly magnificent; primitive, primeaval, and with a rugged, powerful beauty. It is a privilege to be close to them, albeit from the security of a vehicle: they are not to be underestimated. This fellow is one of over 50 now roaming Lewa game park in Kenya. He caught the scent of an orange that one of our party had peeled and was desperately trying to find the source of the tantalising aroma. Fortunately for us, he lost the scent and finally wandered off. Canon D60 with Canon 300mm 2.8L IS with x2 extender; ISO 200 f5.6 1/1500 Formatted to a square crop using the full height of the original frame. Number of views as of 10 November 2009 – 549

This original piece by Las Vegas Artist Jerold Frederick Sowles AKA Rhinovangogh was first shown at the Geogertown Gallery in Washington DC. It is a colorful depiction of an angry and/or distracted Harlequin who is either sending a message or letting something important slip from his grasp. The distant hills of Northern Virgina are across the Potomac River to the west. The seemingly unreachable empty boat represents lonliness and isolation as it floats far out in the middle tethered to a green glass fishing float . A rare Red Crowned Crane symbolizing luck, longevity and fidelity lofts simultaneously with the yellow balloon. The green fishing bouy float also exists in Rhinovangogh’s first painting of model Hyacinth Yun (1997) in a work titled “Marooned” and suggests a strong link to her. / Size of original: 48” X 48” / Medium of Original: Acrylic on Canvas / original now being auctioned on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dllViewItem&item=180373317272

I did this pencil sketch of a mother white rhino and her calf after a photographic trip to a reserve in South Africa. The game guard was kind enough to drive around to give me better angles for the light and shadow. I did an acrylic painting from this sketch, but the sketch has always had a charm for me, that I was never quite able to capture in the finished painting. I added the sepia effect later which somehow recreates a feeling of my youth in the bush of Africa better. I guess I am a little like an ageing newspaper now :) I never did find out how her ear got torn, but I like to think it was in brave defence of her baby.

My depiction of the legendary Badak Api or “Fire Rhino.” Thus sayeth Wikipedia: / “There are legends about rhinoceros stamping out fire in Malaysia, India, and Burma. The mythical rhinoceros has a special name in Malay, badak api, where badak means rhinoceros and api means fire. The animal would come when a fire is lit in the forest and stamp it out.” In this artwork I portrayed the Badak Api as a wise-looking red beast, whose horn sheds a glowing light as he patrols the forests looking for fires to stamp out. My drawing is based off of the Black Rhino, a critically endangered species of Rhino from Africa. Original artwork is 11×14 on Canson paper and is a mixed media piece featuring oil pastels, marker, and gold paint pen. View more of my artwork at www.lynnetteshelley.com
