One of Africa’s fiercest river predators, the tigerfish. It strikes with incredible speed and precision, taking down its prey in a single bite. With large jaws, sharp eyes, and a sleek, powerful body, these fish are built for hunting.
Capturing their wild ferocity in paint is a challenge I relish. I start with pencil studies, then move on to a preliminary concept sketch—an essential step in bringing “Fire Tiger” to life.

The attractive little spot-tail robber (Brycinus imberi) is a common species found in the middle & lower Zambezi. In this painting, robbers are chased up from the papyrus edge by tigerfish patrolling along the edges.
