The Old Baobab:
Respected, legendary, the Baobab symbolizes an eternal strength in the African landscape. The desolate background in this watercolor brings out the elegant silhouette of an old baobab, under the hot sun of the savanna.
From the islands of Halong Bay to the dusty back roads of south Texas, Lap Ngo has traveled the world. His paintings are an expression of his journeys. They speak to us as beautifully as the "Bride" in the African Series tells us of her wedding day. Lap captures life in all his paintings from all his worlds whether that is a European village or a forgotten castle in Morocco.
