Out of Africa
Zebra, Sabi Sands Game Reserve Safari |
Back from weeks in Cape Town and two safaris in Sabi Sands and Timbavati game reserves near Kruger National Park. Just starting to get my rhythm back, and still somewhat jet lagged. What an experience.
Of course, I start with a horse's close relative, the zebra, and I met lots of them. And lions, leopards, hyenas, warthogs, elephants, Cape buffalo, wild dogs, baboons, and on and on. Never got to meet so many animals, in their world, with no barriers between us and them.
I tried to paint in the field, but that proved to be too challenging most of the time. Have tons of reference photos, however, so much more to come.
I've already started on a clay sculpture of a giraffe, and hope to continue in the sculptural vein for a while.

Thrilled for the chance to go, but SO MUCH more appreciative of what I have and what the USA is.
