Tony Forrest - Wildlife Art


	Some paintings recently sold and a few of my favourites from the past.

Victoria Falls
One of the most visually inspiring places I have ever visited. I love dramatic light and atmoshere and here we see it in abundance. I put the birds in to give a sense of scale - look closely! There are times when I wish I still had this painting.

On Reflection
One of the many relaxing scenes from my visit to Botswana a few years ago.

Lion!
A picture of fear and chaos from near Chudop waterhole in Etosha. This herd were constantly being spooked by the close proximity of two lions that we were also watching to see what would happen. What the zebras didn't know was that the lions had a...

The Dust of Etosha
The herd of zebra at Chudop waterhole, in Etosha where there was much drama with two lions close by. The zebra kept going down to drink then when one was spooked, the whole lot panicked and ran! I spent a whole afternoon watching this.
