About "Egrets of the Umfolozi No. 5 of 35"

Egrets are often seen accompanying big game catching insects as the animals move along. Often we overlook these birds as our focus is on the big game and yet they are always there either riding on the back of a rhino, hopping from hippo to hippo or pecking at ticks between the hundreds of buffalo legs.
I fortunate to witness these egrets in the Umfolozi river without the presence of the big game and the scene was set with the birds all adopting different stances and doing different activities. It was a perfect opportunity to capture them in a neutral environment.

About Al

My love for art stems from my life to date, a life of travel and exploration through 15 countries in Africa and to 4 of the world's continents. Born in 1973 in the Eastern Cape, I was exposed to nature, wildlife and landscapes from an early age on our family farms. My love for the great outdoors has grown over the years so much so that I try and spend as much as 4 months in the bush every year.

Although not educated as an artist, my professional interests in architecture, interior design and photography have given me an eye for shape, form and colour. Both my passions of work and art have provided me with valuable exposure and combined to give a solid understanding of art and the industry.

My work is largely a result of my seeking and seeing something different, something extraordinary in something that we may see everyday. My work offers me a fantastic platform from which to share the wonderful experiences that nature, my travels and my life have afforded me with the rest of world.

All my works are Gicle[0xC3A9] limited edition canvas prints. Each print is hand signed, numbered and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity to ensure that the work of art that you purchase retains and appreciates in value.
