A nationally recognized wildlife artist, Fred Krakowiak’s work is all about spontaneity and motion, as is the Africa he sees with his artist’s eye.

• An elephant becomes its ears, fanning out as it thrashes through the thicket with its tucked trunk
• The lion's majestic mane comes alive while his eyes penetrate your spirit
• A rhino’s powerful horn cuts through the threatening wilderness
• The Cape Buffalos menacing glare pierces through you
• Your adrenalin is elevated from the leopard intimidating stare      

Krakowiak’s priority is to capture the experience of seeing these amazing animals, their motion, their passion, their place in the untamed world.
