Notes

MS: Are the hyenas, antelope and wildebeest that appear in your work related in some way to the fact that your father was the administrative director of the National Parks Board?

WB: My experience through my father’s position at the Parks Board is based almost entirely on seeing live animals in the parks.

The following is an example taken from an interview with Michael Stevenson published in the Standard Bank Young Artist for the Visual Arts 2005 catalogue on page 63.
