The Shy Giant Ibis

Oil on repurposed wood

W 10in x L 22in x D 3/4in

3.5 lbs.

This Giant Ibis is a beautiful animal being saved at the Siem Pang Sanctuary in Cambodia with the help of Rising Phoenix.  It is recorded as being the largest Ibis in the world.  However, they are in grave danger of disappearing.  "Extinct in Thailand and Vietnam, and probably so in Laos. 25% of the global giant ibis population are in Siem Pang, a population that has increased thanks to the protection afforded by the Siem Pang Wildlife Sanctuary (SPWS)."

In this painting of oil on repurposed wood, I introduce to you the Giant Ibis, the lotus flower (national flower of Cambodia) and some of the beautifully crafted giant Buddha statues outside of one of the many Buddhist temples in Siem Pang, Cambodia.
