Roger Jessop

Art of Africa


 

Most of Roger’s birds are the ones we find in Kenya, but he will have a go at anything. He has done a pheasant, a brown pelican and is itching to do a bald headed eagle. He has recently started airbrushing so can now get, we think, a much better finish. The finer details are done by hand.

The toucan comes from Central and South America, so this is something of a diversion from the

African theme, but it is such a beautiful bird that it was irresistible.
