The Travellers' Poem


Amongst the mighty herds
Upon the far savanna where big cats laze and streak
Amidst clouds of multicoloured butterflies
And colonies of strange and rare birds
Into the famed yet still mysterious Africa

An exciting adventure starts from the Airport
As unique spectacles of various wildlife await
Not to mention the underwater beauties of coral reef
And mile after mile of white sandy beaches fringed by waving palm trees
Into the famed yet still mysterious Africa

The vivacity and gaiety of the people is undeniable
In the verve and excitement of the traditional dances
To the modern hotels and picturesque restaurants
Then a visit to the markets where colours in combinations will tickle the artist in you
Into the famed yet still mysterious Africa

African sunset


I really enjoyed working on this painting because it's simple and relaxing to watch.The colours also came out nicely.

Savanna landscape


When one visits the interior to check on the wildlife,one encounters the beautiful landscape and vegetation.It is home to numerous creatures,some known and others unknown.
