Aardvark by Willemien Burger

Comments

Interesting to see one of these creatures Willemien. A lovely sensitive painting.

I can tell this was painted with great sensitivity (such a sad story too). I like it a lot Willemien

Very sad a sensitive painting of a very beautiful creature.

Great drawing skills and overall feel of this Willemien!

Long time no see! An old dust gathered watercolor on which I added soft pastels. I have never seen one in the veld but it is dream sighting. This was inspired by a dead aardvark that washed up on a beach near Cape Town last year. A sad testament of the illegal animal trade. Who knows where he was bound...it touched me deeply.
