About "Bloody Hell"

I had heard of the statistics of the number of Rhino slaughtered and it was shocking to know that this animal is being wiped off the face of the earth. I wanted to express my feelings about the hopeless situation this prehistoric creature found itself in. Thinking how would a bushman express himself I figured that he would use what was around him to illustrate. I was in my garage and there and then used what I found in front of me to express how I felt. Pine shelf offcut, Polyfilla and some acrylic paint. I used a large nail to inscribe and my fingers and a rag to paint.
All I could think of while doing it was "BLOODY HELL!!! THIS HAS TO BE STOPPED"

I'm a former Photovoltaic Solar System Designer and business owner and have always had a passion for art and cooking.
I recently decided to pursue my passions and with the guidance of accomplished artist and friend Fernanda (Nandi) de Lange I have embarked on my journey of the visual arts.
My choice of Medium is Oils but will use other Mediums if, what I want to express or create, needs. I paint what inspires me and want to create.
I also have a passion for photography and enjoy the practice of Contemplative Photography.
