“On Safari – Cheetah” is an abstract oil painting that captures the grace and power of the cheetah in its natural habitat. On safari, early morning, we encountered two Cheetahs - a bonded pair of brothers who hunt and live together. Apparently this is common. Our group – about 6 of us and two guides, one in the front and one in the rear, walked in single file – towards them. As long as we stayed close together, no gaps, they think we are a large animal, not small enough for their prey. We had an unforgettable, up close and personal experience. Their eyes were an intense colour of orange gold. Their incredible speed, makes them formidable hunters and this painting attempts to capture a glimpse of their beauty and rendered in a warm palette of ochres, creams, and pale oranges. The colours evoke the heat of the African plains and the golden light that bathes the landscape at dawn and dusk. Linear pencil marks, and spots, accentuate the cheetahs’ lithe forms , spotted coats and the terrain.
This painting is a very modern, contemporary abstract work that would look fantastic hanging in your home.
