Little Cub
£165.00
  • Little Cub

  • 30x30cm

  • Oil painting on wide edged linen canvas

I love creating these  one-of-a-kind Small  oil paintings  on Linen Canvas.

A great opportunity to have an original work of art with a small original. Looks super on its own or mixed with others from the collection.

I love working in layers, often beginning in watercolour (yes watercolour) on canvas as this is how I work in y sketchbook. Then the the time is right I carry on in oils. Watercolour isn’t soluble in oil and so the underpainting does not get muddy when the oil paint is applied over it. Its a wonderful way to work with spontaneity and careful detail all blended together. My  unique approach to animal painting, marked by a playful and whimsical touch, adds depth and character to the piece.

A great way to start your collection, or to treat yourself to something special, even if you’ve run out of wall space.

The original painting comes unframed with D rings and hanging cord attached ready to hang. Postage and packing to the UK is included in the price. Please select Free shipping at the checkout.

Mohawk of the Mara
£1,450.00

Original painting  Medium: Oil on Linen
Size: canvas size 75 x 90cm Framed size 85× 100cm

Price INCLUDING frame, postage and packing to GB address is £1450

This beautiful oil painting is painted on natural linen canvas, and the linen is visible in the background. This gives the vibrant colours in the lion space to breathe. This is such a statement piece. They are incredible warm colours made from ochre, Naples yellow, Chinese orange, an Italian rose brown, these sit next to cool blues, icy pale turquoise and greys.

The colours are inspired by the surrounding landscape, now incorporated into the lion.

As with all my lions, Mohawk of the Mara is based on my real encounters on the Masai Mara. I stay at Offbeat mara camp, and the camp is fortunate to have the large offbeat pride close by, so lions become part of  daily life when there. They are truly wonderful animals and I remain mesmerised by them. Mohawk was the first lion I ever saw on the mara, I first saw him on the north conservancy, he is now on the main reserve and is known for his powerful presence and luxuriant mane.

He is extremely powerful.

This painting depicts Mohawk walking towards our jeep early one morning. He came so close I could have reached out and touched him. I didn’t of course, my heart was beating out of my chest as he approached us. He was beautiful and powerful in equal measure. I shall never forget it.


Framed in a plain white frame, with hanging cord attached  ready to hang.

Betsy
£795.00

Betsy is a beautiful statement highland cow.

She is 70cm x 70cm. Oil on linen.

The beautiful colourful cow has been created using excellent quality oil paints, in a series of layers to great depth and keep a vibrancy of colour. She's is bold and yet friendly and could be a wonderful addition to your home. Most of my highlands are based on my own reference photos from The new forest, or the Peak district and they each have their own distinct unique character.

Betsy’s lovely colours are beautifully balance by the natural linen canvas showing through creating a sophisticated background.

Betsy will make you smile every time you look at her.

Betsy has been made into a print by my publishers available from my usual stockists, however if you want the one and only original oil painting, its available here on my website.

This painting comes unframed with D rings and hanging cord are attached ready to hang.

The price includes postage and packing to a GB address. Simply select free shipping at the checkout.

Fred
£1,525.00

Fred teh elephant. Original oil painting

 Medium: Oil on LinenSize: canvas size 90 x 90cm Framed size 100× 100cm 

Price INCLUDING frame, postage and packing to GB address is £1450

Fred is one of the largest males on the Mara North Conservancy (and was friends with the late great Hugo). The colour palette I have used for Fred is based on the colours of the morning light on the Mara.

We sometimes associate Africa with having hot red and orange colours but an early morning drive on the Mara gives a surprisingly muted and cool pallet which match his cool, calm nature. He is extremely powerful.

This beautiful oil painting is painted on natural linen canvas, and the linen is visible in the background. This gives the beautiful colours in the elephant space to breathe. This is such a statement piece.

They are incredible warm colours made from ochre, Naples yellow, French coral, and Italian rose brown, these sit next to cool blues, icy pale turquoise and gentle greys.The colours are inspired by the surrounding landscape, now incorporated into the elephant .

Framed in a plain white frame, with hanging cord attached  ready to hang.

Postage and packing to GB is included, Select free shipping at the checkout.

Cooper (doodle) painting
£495.00

This is the original painting of Cooper.

You might have seen my print of Bumbles the cockapoo, based on my own dear cockapoo who is a blue merle colour. I've been inundated with requests to create a blonde doodle in a similar style to Bumbles but a more neutral palette.

This is a 50×50cm intricate oil painting on a  wide edged linen canvas.

The beauty of an enegery of a mixed media painting, matching that joy and energy every dog owner understands from their loveable, bouncy, crazy little friend!

This painting is on the short list with my piblishers to be made into a print, however this is the one and only original, ready for his forever home, at a fraction of the cost of a bespoke commission.

The original painting comes unframed with D rings and hanging cord attached ready to hang.

Amani
£695.00

Kasi
Oil on linen, 70 × 70 cm
Unframed, ready to hang
£695

Amani is a well known and monitored female cheetah. She is a phenomenal Mum, and has raised several large litters successfully. ‍

We were lucky enough to see cheetah every day. Cheetah have the characteristic black lines from their eyes to their cheeks, sometimes nicknamed their “sunglasses” as the black fur helps reduce the glare of the African sun. Cheetah, unlike lions and leopard, can only hunt in the day so they have to be able to cope with the strong African sunshine.

Layer upon layer of oil paint builds the cheetah, with beautiful vibrant colours against more naturalistic ones,

At 70 × 70 cm, Amani carries the presence and vibrancy of my larger Africa works, but is more suited to this size. This piece is a true one-off, not available as a print, for a collector seeking something unique.

Unframed — comes with D-rings and hanging cord attached, ready to hang.

Postage and packing is included in the price for UK delivery
I personally prepare and package every piece to ensure it arrives in perfect condition. Your artwork will be sent via a trusted courier, fully tracked. so it reaches you safely and beautifully presented. check free shipping at the checkout.
