Artwork Description
The struggle for survival is as old as Africa itself and artist Simon Combes observed this daily from his home in Kenya. “Early morning is no time to relax since hunters are hungry and lionesses still seek their breakfast,” Simon says. “These big cats concentrate every muscle and highly-tuned sense as their bodies glide through the long grass that covers their approach. The tension is palpable.”
