About "Shawu"

Private collectors item:This is my Favourite elephant of the great seven elephants of all time. These elephants were regarded as the greatest, oldest and bearing the longest tusks in recorded history! Shawu was my favourite! The elephant is magnificent and magestic! They are graceful and very light footed they have better memory than humans do and can remember many things for many years! I Love elephants and this is what inspired me to paint them Many times! This painting is part of a Private Collection.

About Frans

Frans Coetzee, artist of Pretoria, specialises in Multi-Subject Realistic and Illustrative Art mostly working on assignments and have done artworks across the subject range:

Mostly Wildlife (Big Fives- Full length bodies and heads only, Elephants, Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Kudu, Birds, Eagles, Horses etc),

Nudes

I love creating artworks that are a compliment to the subject. It's said that an artists painting represents the colour that he sees and his perception of the subject and I love seeing my artworks emulate the beauty of God's Creation in full vibrant colour&detail!

Commissions welcome and prints available on certain artworks by order only!

Price Range

US$ 101-1,841

Exhibitions

Works were mostly done on commission as per clients request but many works were made for exhibits which were privately exhibited on request or as I found an exhibition where I would be able to exhibit and I organised quite a few of my own exhibitions-in total all the exhibitions were a few times a year at various different venues. Many artworks I did for myself for my own collection and some are for both exhibitions but also for my own collection.

Education

1979-1981 studied Graphic design at WITS passed with distinction
