About Safari Series: The Tourist
Safari Series: The Tourist is part of Michael Godard's expanding catalog of limited edition fine art. The scene is simple and quietly funny: a tiger resting its paw on a bar table, nose to the rim of a martini glass with a single green olive at the bottom, sizing up the drink like any other tourist working up the nerve to order something new. As with all of Godard's limited editions, Safari Series: The Tourist 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.

About Michael Godard
The Tourist sets a tiger at a bar table eyeing a martini, the kind of quiet visual joke that defines Michael Godard's Safari Series. It carries his personified, character-driven style out of the cocktail glass and into the animal kingdom.
Godard was born in 1963 and is based in Las Vegas, where he worked as a drummer before turning to painting full time. Known as the "Rockstar of the Art World," he built his reputation giving olives, grapes, and other fruit bold personalities in high-contrast, character-driven scenes. After losing his daughter Paige to cancer, he has supported children's cancer charities including St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and that mix of humor and heart runs through everything he paints.
Metal Editions
Safari Series: The Tourist is also available as limited "on Metal" editions, printed on metal with their own sizes and pricing:
- 40" x 60" M Edition on Metal, material Metal, $4,995
