Gemsbok – Signed Fine Art Print
$19.95 – $27.95
Information about the Gemsbok:
The Gemsbok also known as a Gemsbuck, is a large antelope found in southern east Africa. The name is derived from the Dutch name of the male chamois, which is a horned ungulate that lives in alpine regions of mainland Europe. However, the chamois and the Gemsbok are not related. They are widely hunted and their horns are prized trophies, but unlike many of the large mammals in Africa they are not considered endangered. Gemsbok typically live in small herds of about ten to forty, which consist of a dominant male, a few non-dominant males, and females.

Artist’s notes:
This drawing is based upon photos and sketches done at the Wildlife World Zoo in Arizona. I wouldn’t say these are the most popular animal I’ve ever drawn (a friend of mine recently asked if I had ever sold a print and I had to admit I hadn’t.) but I think Oryx are very cool animals. I think the coloration is good and the overall pose of the gemsbok is interesting. The grayish coat on these hoofed mammals is very beautiful. UPDATE: I recently learned that I had mislabeled this species. I have corrected that now. The new drawing is based on a photo by Dave Krueper and was used with permission.

Margay – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Margay:
The Margay is a smaller member of the feline family. It is native to southern North America, down through much of Central America and most of South America. Like many other species of cat, the Margay is a solitary hunter. It prefers remote sections of very dense tropical and subtropical rainforests and cloudforests. It looks similar to the Ocelot, but the head is a little smaller with longer legs and tail. The cat weighs from 5.7 to 8.8 pounds (2.6 to 4 kilograms), with a body length of 19 to 31 inches (48 to 79 centimeters), and a tail length of 13 to 20 in (33 to 51 centimeters.) Because of unregulated hunting and habitat loss this cat is considered endangered by some environmental groups.
