Craig Bone is a Zimbabwean-born wildlife artist, famous for his ultra-realistic paintings of African animals. Born in 1955 in Salisbury (now Harare), he studied graphic design before serving in the Rhodesian Light Infantry. A severe wartime injury shifted his focus fully to art.

After a transformative trip to the Zambezi Valley, he developed his signature realist style, meticulously observing wildlife in their natural habitats. Beyond art, Bone is committed to conservation and veteran support, raising funds for wounded soldiers. He has received several honors, including Safari Club International Wildlife Artist of the Year (2003). He now lives in Florida and continues to paint and exhibit worldwide.

Very good condition.
