About "Close Up"

I was very fortunate to have had the privilege of being brought up with elephants. It is my ambition to portray them as much as I can to raise awareness for their survival. The mighty, majestic African elephant is an endangered species with an every increasing threat of extinction.

About Niki

Niki has made the CROSSHATCH technique her speciality applying ink on paper, canvas and canvas board using the Rapidograph technical pen working with a variety of cone sizes ranging from 0.18mm - 0.50mm.

After a keen interest in art from childhood, she was particularly influenced by the early sketchings of the 14th century grand Masters whilst visiting museums in the United Kingdom and Italy during her late teens. These sketchings laid the foundation for her chosen medium, and with her great technical ability and natural perception of tonal value and contrast, she has been able to perfect her own unique style for creating realism, often finished with a 3D effect.

Niki's wildlife art has been exhibited in the United Kingdom, South Africa and Zimbabwe. She has completed commissions for Germany and the USA and there are private collections of her works worldwide.

Niki works from her studio in Cape Town.
