Clive Kay, Artist - African Wildelife
Description
Artist Clive Kay - African Wildlife by an African Artist. Clive Kay has done a number of special commission paintings over the years, but by far "The Biggest One" was the inaugural painting the Walt Disney company commissioned for the opening of the Animal Kingdom in April 1998. Since than he has done two additional Disney paintings (amongst many other paintings of African Wildlife). Clive Kay was born and raised on a 4,000 acre farm in Zimbabwe. He credits his father for giving him an understanding and love of the natural world. With encouragement from his Dad to take up photography and Clive’s favorite subject biology at school, the result in later years was an urge to start painting nature. He did his first painting in 1964. In 1975 he moved to Canada and soon had the opportunity to meet and spend time with artist Robert Bateman. Clive vividly remembers two private sessions with Bateman in his Ontario home. His advice proved invaluable years later. He has done a number of special commission paintings over the years, but by far "The Biggest One" was the inaugural painting the Walt Disney company commissioned for the opening of the Animal Kingdom in April 1998.
