Morning Drinks, Tsumcor
oil on linen, 32x63
“Morning Drinks, Tsumcor depicts a herd of kudu at the Tsumcor waterhole, in Etosha,
Namibia. I’ve spent many hours at this place with sketchbook and pencils in hand and
camera at the ready, soaking up the atmosphere that’s unique to Africa. The painting took
me about six weeks, working about eight hours every day. There was a good amount of
wiping off , redrawing and repositioning before I was satisfi ed with the composition.”
