Grants Zebra

Animal Art

Grant's zebra
(Equus burchelli boehmi)
The plains zebra has differentiated into several subspecies, two of which are now extinct. The Grant's zebra is the most common of the plains zebra subspecies. In the wild its distribution extends from southern Sudan through East Africa south to the Zambezi River. There may be some 300,000 left in the wild; on the Serengeti-Mara Plains alone there are an estimated 150,000 plains zebras. During the rainy season in Serengeti, aggregate herds of up to 10,000 individuals may form, part of one of the last great wildlife spectacles in the world.

Wildlife artist Kathie Miller has captured every detail of this beautiful equine with colored pencils.

I love the close-up on the window to the soul of this beauty! And a lovely treatment on the play of light/shadow on the hair! Nicely done! :)
