African Splendor
"Witnessing a pair of magnificent lions surveying the vast African plains at sunset is a thrilling experience. In this painting, I want the viewer to feel the excitement and sense of the majesty of this treasured moment in time. Through the subtle use of light and color, I also wish to evoke a feeling of tranquility as the lions survey their domain from the high vantage point and shelter of the kopje (rock outcropping)."- Carlson
