African Topi Painting

HEY FRIENDS! Getting back into my summer routine, writing and painting, drawing, and working out each morning, playing soccer. Today is my annniversary, 12 years to my honey bunny, best friend, my heart's other half, Gayln. Just a quick note on the painting: This is "U-Topi-A" a watercolor and ink painting of the amazing unique looking Topi antelope found in Kenya and Tanzania and Sudan too. These guys seem almost tri-colored in certain light. The Masai warriors explained to me that the Topi is the fastest antelope. I don't know if this is true but i know it is a BIG antelope, dwarfing Impalas and gazelles. I hope you like it. Doug Hiser
