Description
36×48, Oil on Linen
This rhino was spotted by myself in South Africa, photographed at that time and then painted in my home studio. The black rhino was one numbered in the hundreds of thousands throughout South Africa, but due to unregulated hunting and poaching, that has decreased over the years into just the 6000 range. For this reason, the Black Rhino is considered critically endangered, but conservationists are cautiously optimistic.
