Artwork Description

Oil on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

At 11 months old, two cheetah cubs lived with their mother, and two others had been hand reared due to lack of resources of the reserve. At the time I took the photos, I was doing a wildlife photography internship on the Western Cape in South Africa and we were with the two wild cubs. The mother cheetah had gone to hunt and the two left behind eagerly awaited her return. The one I painted has just spotted her appearing over the ridge of the hill.
I have used transparent glazes in this work to capture the light and warmth in the cheetah's coat, and the ochre grasses she sits in, letting the background fade into the cooler greens and violets as it recedes.
