Item Description
This extraordinary creation, by African artist Emma Kavuma, was painted in honor of Global Sanctuary for Elephants and their first two rescues. There is no photograph that can do justice to the vibrancy of the colors and exquisite detail of this one-of-a-kind painting. It is heirloom quality, a rich focal point and a conversation starter that will bring a room to vibrant life. Emma's passion for animals dances through each and everyone of his works of art.
About the artist: Emma Kavuma
After the death of my parents at an age of 5, I was brought up by my grand father in a small village up to when I finished my primary level then my grand became bankrupt. Because I had a talent of art. I painted a portrait of a member of parliament who agreed paying my school fees up to when I finished high school.From there I joined a guy who used to paint and then entered the WORLD OF ART.
I married my wife Nankya who is a textile artist in 2008.
I've traveled to the Netherlands with my artwork and to France. I teach local art classes to children in Kampala. I use canvas as well as bark cloth that I make myself from the trees. I will make my own colors so each of my paintings is as vivid as can be. I pay great attention to detail and my paintings are full of symbolism that I will share with my buyers upon request
