Donated to the Blood Origins auction by the Longoria-Hosmer Foundation, this powerful work by South African wildlife artist Leon Fouché supports the upcoming rhino conservation documentary co-funded by Longoria-Hosmer Foundation.
Rendered in soft pastel with remarkable precision and soul, Black Rhino is an intimate portrait of one of Africa’s most iconic and imperiled species. Fouché’s hallmark realism and reverence for wild subjects are on full display—inviting the viewer into a rare, quiet moment with a living relic of Africa’s wilderness.
This one-of-a-kind framed original is more than a piece of fine art—it is a visual plea for protection, a tribute to beauty on the brink, and a tangible way to contribute to storytelling that moves hearts and changes minds.
Proceeds from this piece will directly support the production of the rhino documentary film currently being co-funded by the Longoria-Hosmer Foundation.
