Wildlife Art

My Story

To me there are few things more inspiring than the full-blown roar of a lion, or the display of an elephant – head raised and ears wide open.

Growing up in South Africa afforded me opportunities to experience nature like few can. I discovered at a young age that I have a deep respect and appreciation for wildlife, and I remember dabbling in art and filling a sketchbook with drawings of animals.

Over time I have honed my skills as an artist and together, with years of experience as a nature guide, I have found my niche.

Charcoal is my medium of choice. With each stroke I wish to not only bring canvas to life, but to capture the soul of the animal I have come to know.

"We bought 2 gorgeous prints from Nic when we were on Safari. He was drawing one & we knew we had to have it. When it was finished he was so helpful in getting the print to us in the UK. We love his artwork so much that we ordered another one, again the service was outstanding. We can't wait to add more of Nic's artwork to our collection!"

"One of my favourite artists. Nic's passion for the animals he brings to life is the most excellent blend of raw talent and passionate love for the animals he draws!"

"It was a great pleasure for us to deal with Nic. He advised us very well to find the perfect picture. His service in shipping & communication concerning dates & payments was perfect - always very kind, quick & trustworthy. Thanks for bringing us back many beautiful memories of our game drive tour in South Africa!"

"Nic's talent and craftmanship is incredible and it clearly shows in his artwork. Absolutely love his passion!"

"Nic was one of the guides while I was in South Africa and I now have one of his amazing elephant prints on my living room wall. Nic, you are an inspiration and a wonderful human being!"

"From the U.S. and I have two pieces from Nic. Amazing work and a memory that will last a lifetime!"

"Such a talent, you bring these beautiful creatures to life on canvas."

"Insanely beautiful craftsmanship. So super happy with our pictures!"

"We love our elephant! It's so beautiful!!! We bought it after the safari on March 2nd, 2020."

"In 2019 we were in South Africa where we saw Nic's work for the first time. Everyday when I look at the prints (elephant & giraffe) I think back on our time in SA and it makes me so happy. The prints hang in our kitchen and are so fun to look at!"
