I’m actually a little awestruck that we’ve made it here: The Last Little Guy (sounds like a good book!)…
It was very difficult to decide what animal to choose for the grand finale - there are so many still on my Wish List! But when I stumbled upon this smashing photo of a curious Lesser Bushbaby, expertly captured by Owen Gröbler from Searching for Spots, the decision was made for me.
I mean, just LOOK AT IT!!! I’ve never seen a more beautiful photo of a bushbaby. Being nocturnal, they are understandably difficult to photograph! This adorable little thing was obviously just too curious to stay tucked in bed, and made a day-time appearance.
Apart from the magic in its enormous eyes, the way the sun has set its little ears on fire, the dramatic contrast between light and shadow, I could not have asked for a more interesting setting. That tree is just amaaaazing!!!
Be sure to follow me on Facebook, Instagram or TikTok to see the progress of the painting! That being said, I promise that you’ll see the final artwork here first…
