Rhinoceros Varieta

acrylic, pen & pencil on canvas

Personally, I think the continued grumpy look on the rhino’s face - apart from their obvious hatred of poachers - is due to their jealousy from being lumped in with elephants as a disinteresting grey colour. I suppose lack of natural predators meant they didn’t need camouflage, but how good would they look if they had it?
