Original artwork description:

Kalahari King is a bold, expressive tribute to the raw power and majesty of the lion, the ultimate symbol of strength and pride. This painting reimagines the lion as a mythic presence vibrating with colour and energy. The style blends elements of street art, expressionism, and modern wildlife portraiture, with spontaneous drips, splashes, and layered brushwork creating a sense of movement and intensity. Vivid oranges, magentas, electric blues and neon yellows burst from the canvas like a desert storm, giving the lion a regal, otherworldly glow. His gaze holds still amid the chaos, calm, commanding, unshakeable. The painting was built up in layers: thin washes, thick impasto, flicks and pours, each mark a pulse in the rhythm of the wild. This is not just a portrait of a lion, it’s a celebration of courage, hope, and power redefined.
