“Black Gold” by John Banovich
This gallery Edition 21”x x35” Giclee portrays a majestic Cape Buffalo peering out from behind a bush, keenly aware of it’s; surroundings. The artist describes his work in the following way: “Hunting my first Cape buffalo, Phillip Redd of Zambezi Hunters in the Save Conservancy, was a life changing experience. Over several days of stalking the 250 plus herd of Nyati, I was never so aware of every sound and smell – all my senses seemed as if they were electrified. Even though we were trying to get close enough for a clean shot, I could not help but be transfixed by the golden, even light juxtaposed with the steel umber hue of the buffalo torsos… and the shimmer of the sunlight of their horns seemed as if they wore “helmets of black gold”. The intimacy one attains with a buffalo during such a hunt is etched in your mind for life.” ~ John Banovich John Banovich is one of the most respected and award winning animal artist in the world and with the Safari Club International.
