Painting - Oil on Paper - Jungle Elephant

A one-off painting by artist Zach Mukwira using oil on paper and hand-cut low relief detail. Zach's artworks are inspired by African legends and stories, his own creative fantasy, and the emotions common to all cultures and ages. Over the years he has developed his own unique style using techniques learned from print-making.

Zach tells us what he loves about the African elephant which inspired this painting, "I’m depicting the elephant - one of Africa’s Big Five. It has a good memory, they don’t forget, they move together as a family and always gather round to protect the young ones from predators."
