Chimp Kid

“CHIMP Kid” – “The Wild Kids” COLLECTION

Original watercolor drawing created by Stephan Alsac, contemporary animal artist: A baby chimpanzee.

From its first months, the little one constantly plays with its mother, in the morning, in their nest, or during naps: she gently jostles it, tickles it or boxes it without brutality. And he hits his mother, with leaves or his own feet. It is also through playing that she teaches him how to find his food. At 2 years old, the little one feeds almost entirely on solid foods, but its mother can continue to breastfeed it for a very long time, even if another little one is born. Mother-child bonds persist for several years after he enters the juvenile stage. From then on, he will play more and more with other young people his age or others older and even with adults who are not his parents. Sometimes, chimpanzees organize real nurseries: a dozen young monkeys are supervised only by a mother or two, with or without their own young. The little ones have fun running on the branches, swinging, jumping from one to the other. Between them, there are fights, chases, mock battles with small branches.

The Collection “The Wild Kids” is a collection of drawings, watercolors and paintings dedicated to the small babies of the wild animals. As we know, children love animals, especially when they are small. With this collection, I would like to make our children aware of the protection of all species. Our children often make us think of little lions or cunning little foxes; finally “The Wild kids” are not so different.
