‘Zulu’ - Original Painting

This striking original painting, Zulu, captures the majestic presence of a beautiful lion from Port Lympne Hotel & Reserve in Kent. Painted in acrylic on canvas and measuring 24 x 31 inches, the piece radiates both strength and serenity, paying tribute to one of nature’s most iconic animals.

Zulu was proudly submitted to the David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year 2024, celebrating the vital connection between art and conservation.
