Phacochoerus aethiopicus aethiopicus, originally native to South Africa, this subspecies became extinct around 1871. Cape warthog specimens held in museums lack locality records and the full extent of the Cape warthog’s former distribution remains unknown. There is no mention of this subspecies being obtained after 1860. The Cape warthog and the Dessert warthog are very similar in appearance, one difference is a lack of functional incisors.

‘New Works in Smokey Charcoal’
The A1 size unframed drawings are $3,300
The A2 size unframed drawings are $2,200
105.5 cm x 92 cm (A1 framed of Dash)
I have recently developed a strong interest in creating portraits of horses and hounds in a sophisticated and contemporary art style, exploring dynamic compositions and using the impressive qualities of charcoal. I am engaging in a technicque called ‘sfumato’ where the subjects edges are softly blended imparting an intriguing smoky effect.
I have included examples of my new charcoal artwork collaboration with Allpress Antiques in Melbourne, creating charcoal art inspired by ‘Objects of Virtue’.
This first example of my work is of the much loved whippet ‘Dash’.
