About "Solitary Sentry No. 13 of 30"

The Leopard is by far one of the most beautiful animals on the planet. Their elusive character and rare sightings reputation make them that more special when encountered in the bush.
Leopards are solitary animals only socializing when they find a mate and when they have cubs. Living such solitary lives, leopards have to rely on their highly tuned senses to survive.
With a kill stashed in the tree, this leopard stayed at the base of the tree safeguarding its kill like a solitary sentry.
I have a special connection with Leopards having been given the nickname 'Ingwe' by a Zulu chief at the age of 13 because of my stalking prowess in the bush much like a leopard.
Ever since the name has stuck with me and my wife refers to me as the 'Leopard man' for my ability of finding Leopards in the bush.

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.
