Journey Through Africa II

Acrylic on glass. This is the second addition to my series “Journey Through Africa”, the other three include a Giraffe in it’s habitat, a Red Bishop bird and a Poison dart frog. This piece is of one of an indigenous African tree and It’s colors and shape really attracted me to it in creating this work. This piece like the other two in the series was also painted on an antique mirror. I take something old and forgotten and create something new, yet try to keep the aged or classic feel throughout the piece. I really love the scroll work of these interesting mirrors teamed with an African theme. Usually just looking at a prospective mirror I see what I will paint next in it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did in creating it! I am currently working on another new piece in this series…
