Elephant Family Print

Spending time with elephants while traveling to Africa and Asia has been extremely inspirational. Having the chance to observe them in their natural habitat, seeing how much they treasure family and learning more about them has drawn me to capture their energy.

My interest in animals began during a visit to Thailand in 2015. Since that trip, my passion and excitement for elephants has continued to grow. I traveled to Kenya in early 2020 specifically to observe wildlife, visiting Maasai Mara National Reserve, Amboseli National Park and Nairobi National Park.

I will never forget when we arrived at Amboseli during the golden hour before sunset, glimpsed Mount Kilimanjaro peeking out from the clouds and soaked in the magnificent view of elephants as far as the eye could see.

This painting started with a sketch, followed by charcoal layer. Next, I used oils and oil bars to apply color. My media selection is often based on the scene being created or the personality of the elephant or herd of elephants depicted. Many of the paintings show the animals in action, nurturing their young, moving together as a herd or spraying themselves with dirt for sun protection.

I will always be inspired by elephants, and thank you for adding this family of elephants to your home.
