Our first day in the wilder places of South Africa, basking in the warm glow of late-day sun, Golden Hour, captures the fleeting beauty of sunset across the South African hippo pond at Buffelsdrift Game Reserve. Painted en plein air and completed in studio, this oil painting layers knife work with textured brushstrokes in earth tones and saturated light. The golden sky fades into cobalt blue, while highlights catch the scrubby brush and scattered grass that characterize this untamed region.
For collectors who are drawn to the poetry of light, adventure, and travel, this work offers a quiet yet powerful sense of place—perfect for those who seek to surround themselves with the feeling of wide-open landscapes and soulful color. Available as both an original painting and in archival fine art print editions.
