Craig Bone
| CRAIG BONE was born in Salisbury, Rhodesia in 1955, where he grew up. He served for three years as a policeman before transferring to the Rhodesian Light Infantry in 1977. He was critically wounded in Frelimo mortar attack while on operations in Mozambique and it was only because of some desperate flying from the casualty-evacuation helicopter pilot that saved his life. While recuperating he started painting, initially military-themed works, and in a short time he was to be recognized as an artist of some repute. With his passion for wildlife, and the Zambezi Valley, he was to become an internationally acclaimed artist with his paintings being sold worldwide. A painting of his was recently auctioned on behalf of the Vietnam Veterans’ Association and fetched $110,000—it now hangs in the Pentagon. He is the official artist to the Court of King Zwelethini of the Zulus, and is resident artist for the new luxury Zoo Hotel in Dubai. He lives in Florida, USA but still manages to spend several months of the year in the Zambezi Valley. www.craigbone.com
