"Animal Tricks"
by Julia Cairns
This is a framed and matted print of an original acrylic painting - a whimsical a portrayal of African animals including a giraffe, zebra and other animals by British artist Julia Cairns who spent many years living in Africa.
In her own words: "My work has been described as 'whimsical', 'naive' and sometimes 'Folk Art' but I don't believe it can be really categorized as any of these. I often paint African Life and that can be translated into any life. It's just that the people I paint describe a moment in time that happens to be in Africa. Africa is a joyous place, despite the ravages that natural disasters and political unrest bring to it. There is a resilience and fortitude in the people, and they have the ability to overcome intense hardships, never dwelling on what has been but on the present moment which after all is all we have."
Dimensions: 9 x 7 1/4 inches.
