AFRICAN WILDLIFE PAINTINGS
During my time as a wildlife artist I have travelled all over the world photographing, sketching and painting wildlife. Africa is bar far one of the best places in the world to go on safari if you want to see lots of large african mammals. This makes Africa a wildlife artists dream location for collecting and photographing reference material for painting and composing new paintings of your favourite subjects. There is nothing like seeing the animal in the wild in it's natural habitat.
Paintings of African Wildlife
African Elephants are one of the biggest land mammals on the planet. Some of the top locations to see elephants in Africa are:
|
GORILLAS in RwandaOne of Alan's favourite safari trips was playing with the Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda. Located in Central / Eastern Africa, it is bordered by the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west, Uganda to the north, Tanzania to the east, and Burundi to the south. The best place to see the gorillas is in the northern part of Rwanda at the Volcanoes national park which is part of the great Virunga volcano conservation region.
|
Lions in KenyaAlan has been to the Masai Mara, National Park and Game Reserve in Kenya, Central East Africa. Kenya is bordered by Tanzania to the south and southwest, Uganda to the west, South Sudan to the north-west, Ethiopia to the north and Somalia to the north-east. It's location makes it very vulnerable to poaching.
|
BotswanaAlan has also been on safari in Botswana in the Okavango Delta. Botswana has a very diverse ecosystem. Botswana is bordered by South Africa to the south and southeast, Namibia to the west and north, and Zimbabwe to the northeast. The African Painted Dog or Cape Hunting Dog left was captured here in a series of early pencil sketches and watercolour studies.
