    KIM BROOKS (BRITISH B. 1936), HERON IN SUNSET

    Est: £1,000 - £1,500

    KIM BROOKS (BRITISH B. 1936)HERON IN SUNSET Oil on canvas Signed (lower right)30.5 x 23cm (12 x 9 in.)Kim Brooks is one of the true pioneers of wildlife art and helped pave the way for wildlife artists, alongside David Shephard, Simon Coombes and Bob Kuhn, establishing a strong market for wildlife painting and sculpture in the fine art sector. Kim Brooks first met David Shepard at a shared exhibition in San Antonio in Texas and they remained friends from this moment forward. Kim's passion for wildlife is evident throughout her body of work. She is also a tireless campaigner in supporting threatened species, actively involved in Save The Rhino Fund, David Shephard Wildlife Foundation and the Rainforest Foundation amongst other wildlife charities. In 1979 she was awarded gold at the Wildlife Artist International Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona and has exhibited across the world in London, New York, Los Angeles and Johannesburg. Kim Brooks was born in St. Albans, Hertfordshire in 1936. She enrolled at the St Albans Art College and went on to work as an illustrator for a London publisher. It was a commission in 1970 to paint a pair of cheetahs in Nairobi, Kenya which sparked the fascination and passion for African wildlife and more extensive travel to capture rare and exotic animals. Kim's professional career has taken her on adventures from Africa to the Amazon, the title of her most recent publication. Throughout her distinguished career she has always maintained the importance of immersing oneself within the nature to create authentic and sensitive illustrations of these majestic animals in their natural habitats. Kim's work has led wildlife auctions at both Christie's and Sotheby's achieving outstanding prices in both London and New York. In February this year, Kim's striking canvas titled 'Dawn Patrol' depicting Scarlett Macaws in flight reached £44,000. Exotic birds native to tropical rainforests in Peru and Costa Rica have become synonymous with Kim Brooks who has risen to the challenge of capturing these marvellous birds in flight and the unbelievable colours, as seen in Lot 162 & 163. Lot 164 depicts Leopard Alert. Kim has always described leopards as shy and secretive animals. Their ability to remain unseen as they prowl silently through the Serengeti plains has allowed them to live in close proximity to humans. Kim's respect and admiration for these powerful animals radiates through her work. Kim also enjoys working with 3-dimensional objects as this pushes the boundaries of opportunity. By creating a bronze in the round, she is able to look at the subject matter from a different perspective. Kim's understanding of the anatomy is clear as we see each muscle flex in Lot 161 and the texture of the Rhino's thick protective skin in lot 165.
