"Reflections" is a tribute to the life-giving power of water. Water is a precious resource in Africa, and a common expression is, "Everybody is happy when it rains," including wildlife. I was inspired to create this painting after witnessing the transformative impact of rain on animals and birds.

The abundance of wildlife and breathtaking landscapes makes this region one of the greatest natural wonders on Earth. The Ngorongoro Crater, an oasis in Africa's Serengeti, is one of my favorite places. The area is filled with vibrant life, showcasing the beauty of nature, colorful herds of prancing zebras and vibrant pink flamingos refreshed by the rains and the luxury of abundant water. During a multi-day visit to the Ngorongoro Crater, the rains came in the night, transforming dusty grasslands into green, rich grazing lands. Numerous cerulean blue sparkling shallow lakes formed overnight, attracting immense flocks of flamingos and zebras.
