Dino Paravano
Dino Paravano - born in Rome, Italy, in 1935, immigrated with his family to South Africa in 1947 at age 12. Art has always been an intrinsic part of Dino’s life. He started painting at an early age, tutored and encouraged by his amateur-artist father; recipient of a fine art Diploma from the “Institute of Fine Arts,” Rome. To further his studies Dino attended the Johannesburg College of Art, traveled to Europe on study tours, but in essence he is mainly self-taught. Having reached his peak in South Africa, Dino wanted to expand his horizons and traveled often to the US, as well as many countries around the world. Subsequently Dino received international recognition. In 1992 Dino and his wife emigrated from South Africa to the US. They live in Tucson, Arizona.

Limited Edition 7/750
Was: $150 - Now 25% Off!
New Price: $110 CAD
It is an autumn afternoon in the Rocky Mountain wilderness. The stream is rushing, and you can feel the warmth of the sun on the rocks at the edge of the water. A cougar appears at stream side. Maybe it has chased its prey to this point or has seen some possibilities on the other side of the stream. The cougar looks as though it is deciding its next course of action. Perhaps it should continue to the other side, though the stream is to wide to leap across. Maybe it should just rest a while and warm itself in the sun.
