Reflecting Hippo

Melted, blended, layered and textured wax crayon on canvas for all your home and office décor.

Unique and different.

This captivating painting features a majestic hippopotamus partially submerged in water, brought to life with a dazzling explosion of vibrant colours. The artist boldly employs an array of hues—fiery reds, glowing oranges, sunny yellows, cool blues, and verdant greens—to create a striking interplay of warm and cool tones. The hippopotamus itself is adorned with a kaleidoscope of vivid, textured colours, which blend seamlessly into the reflective, equally dynamic water surrounding it.

Set against a dark backdrop, the brilliant hues stand out even more, evoking a sense of energy and curiosity. The play of light and colour on the hippopotamus’s body and the water's surface creates a mesmerizing and dreamlike effect. This painting feels like a celebration of the unexpected beauty in nature, capturing both the strength and serenity of this magnificent creature.
