Painting - Oil on Paper - The Art of Copying Nature

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 inspired this painting, "I’m fascinated with chameleons and how they copy nature around them as they hide from predators. They also camouflage themselves in order to find and attack their food. So the art of copying nature is their art."
