The Bushveld Collection
A New Series of Oil Paintings, Drawings, and Cast Bronze Sculpture of African Wildlife
Inspired by nostalgic travel memories through Southern Africa...
"My earliest paintings featured Zebras and Elephants, and it feels so good to return to this beloved subject matter."
The Bushveld Collection Sculptures
Pre-casting Release
Once the sculptures are cast into their final bronze, the prices will go up by approximately 20%.
The Pre-casting special is a great chance to collect a sculpture at a discounted rate while they are still in their clay form. The pieces sold during the pre-cast release will be moulded and cast into bronze over the next few months, ready to head to their forever homes in late November.
All prices are listed in Canadian funds.
About The Bushveld Collection
...It begins as gentle reflections, remembering weeks of travel through Namibia, Botswana and South Africa.
The urge to revisit one of my favorite subjects, brings deeper stirrings of nostalgia...
Memories crowd forward: experiences of the extraordinary Bushveld landscape, with Acacia trees and Kokerbooms; the broad, flat surface of the Etosha Pan, with shimmering mirages, and the spindly figures of Giraffe walking as if on the surface of water; Elephants at waterholes, and Burchell's Zebras disappearing into the dry season colours, as their stripes break up the outlines of their equine forms.
I pull out my photographs, and the sketchbooks I filled while travelling, finding more inspiration.
An Impala sculpture arrives, envisioned amidst these beautiful reminiscences, then a lioness walking, then several that can also be separate sculptures.
...And it grows from there. As this lovely collection of paintings and sculptures emerges, I will share its production here.

Paintings and drawings will be added later this fall so please subscribe to the newsletter to be notified when they are available.
