These young cheetahs, grooming each other, after the kill.


We were extremely fortunate to see a mother cheetah and her two young kill a small animal. From the time the animal was taken down, until the last hyena ran off with the remains took one hour. This small animal had fed the cheetahs, two jackels, four eagles, many vultures , and two hyenas.

Chui


This leopard was another amazing encounter on my trip with our family this last summer. Leopards are difficult to find. But we found a family! This mother had three baby cubs.

I chose a lime green paper to do this pastel on, which I think helped.

Size of pastel 40 x 32cm. This piece is for sale. Framed 4cm matt, non glare glass and black frame. US$200

Family Group


I needed a change of pace. However this is difficult when you have such a large group on such a small piece of paper! I prefer drawing either larger, or just one subject. The one thing I did enjoy doing was to try and develop each dogs character.

This piece is for sale. Unframed 62 x22 cm US$125
