African Lion Painting

Painted as part of the 'Endangered' series. As we face the increasing need to conserve our planet’s biodiversity and in light of our own government’s inability to recognise animals as sentient beings, I see my art as nothing short of a deep expression of personal grievance. I seek to use art as a vehicle to raise awareness of the plight facing other species that cohabit our environment and to dispel the myth that our fate is somehow separate from theirs. My paintings are larger than life. They are meant to grab attention and focus on larger than life issues about how we conserve our natural environment of which we form an integral part. I try to convey a sense of emotion using the play of light and the impact of the creature’s expression conveyed through its eyes. The uniform size of the canvases is a levelling devise for the animals’ physical size. I hope that my paintings capture an almost imploring plea from my subjects for us to become more sensitive to their needs. We can and must do more.
