Sables

On a visit to the Kruger National Park in 1986, Tienie had the rare privilege to see two sable bulls fighting in the mud on the shore of the Shitlave Dam near Pretorius Kop. He watched them for a long time through his binoculars, until they moved further away and out of sight.

It was so energetic, forceful and almost desperate that it left a lasting impression. When Tienie got back home, he could not wait to immortalize them in a clay composition.
