Hoanib River Jumbo

This 12-by-16 painting captures a bull elephant in the Hoanib riverbed, Namibia. On an early conservation trip helping save the rhino, I spent days studying this bull and its companion, as they strolled and fed on seed pods. Hemspok, zebra, and ostrich kept them company. It’s more than a scene—it’s a memory of my early days in the field, where art and conservation met.
