WILDLIFE ARTIST OF THE YEAR 2009 EXHIBITION
|
 "I
feel immensely proud of the success this year's Wildlife
Artist of the Year Competition. It is so rewarding that
we have not only offered a platform to so many artists
from around the world to showcase their work but through
their generosity it has raised significant funds to
save critically endangered wildlife and helped spread
awareness of the desperate plight of wildlife.
The winners and
all selected work can be viewed below and we hope this
will inspire yet more entries for next years competition
- so please spread the word. Entries are now open -
just click on the link below for more information.
Together, we are
fulfilling the ART of CONSERVATION and are making a
real difference - thank you "
David Shepherd CBE
