One of our missions at The Greenwich Workshop is to share our awe of this world with you. In over 50 releases since 1980, Simon brought us the marvel and wonder that is "The African Experience;" we have circumnavigated the planet with him in search of "The Great Cats" and gone on safari across North America. There is something magic to having been raised in the mix of wildlife, wilderness and man that is Kenya. I believe it has added a genuineness to his canvases that few artists can touch.
"Wildebeest Migration" was issued as a 30th Anniversary canvas because it is such a wonderful example of this. The migration of the wildebeest is only the most obvious aspect of the complex ecosystem that is the Serengeti Plains. Hunters at the top of the food chain such as these lions are as in tune the arrival of the massive herds as are the grasses upon which these ungulates feed. Simon's innate sense of how all of this comes together results in a grand depiction of the intimate balance of life.
