About Safari Series: Don’t Drink the Water
Safari Series: Don’t Drink the Water is part of Michael Godard's expanding catalog of limited edition fine art. Rendered in Godard's signature bold, saturated color palette, this piece from the Safari Series carries the same theatrical exaggeration and craftsmanship collectors recognize across his work: the Safari Series takes Godard's personified-character style out of the bar and into the savanna, giving big-game animals the same comic timing and hidden-detail treatment as his original olive characters. As with all of Godard's limited editions, the piece rewards close viewing: he is known for tucking hidden names, dates, and initials into his compositions, giving collectors new details to find long after the piece is on the wall.
