Exhibiting Artists

Stuart Arnett

My love for wildlife has brought two main focuses to my work, detailed graphite work and artistic cartography mixed media work. Artistic Cartography allows me to bring the species of wildlife and it's habitat together in a single piece of art. My goal is to assist conservation groups in their effort to save endangered species while preserving their habitat.

Capturing and communicating the stories of vulnerable species, places and individuals through the beauty of art.

Suzanne Barrett Justis

The artist Gustave Courbet once said, "the beautiful is in nature and it is encountered under most diverse forms of reality. Once it is found, it belongs to art, or rather to the artist who discovers it." I have always been enraptured by the natural world and strive to recreate what moves and excites me with my art.  I have always been captivated by animals and the many " diverse forms of reality" nature holds. As a kid, I was always drawing something, be it the maple tree in the backyard, our...

Welcome to Serena Bates Sculpture. Stories are what define my work, what drive my vision, what inspire my hands...my life.

Alejandro Bertolo

 In all its forms and styles, the great challenge in Japanese painting consists in rendering the essence of the chosen subject, be it an animal, a tree or a flower. The result is a more intimate and subjective form of art.

The natural world is an amazing thing. From the humble bee and its role in pollination, to the fact that every time an African elephant takes a step, it creates a home for other animals, as its footprint fills with water. Every living thing has a purpose, it exists for a reason, has a role to play and contributes in some way to making the world a beautiful place … unfortunately with one exception – modern man. By painting wildlife and nature, it’s as if I become a part of that beautiful world,...

Nature is our best, free teacher. We can become more aware of how much nature truly enriches our lives by simply observing its perfection and intricacies.    

Rob Butler

I like to explore the interface of human and animal worlds. My art mostly depicts birds but it is the design, use of colours and emotions a painting conveys rather than its accuracy, that is most interesting. All or some of the proceeds from my art is directed to the Pacific WildLife Foundation to assist with my research and conservation of the ocean, and to AFC for their great support of artists.

Wayne Chunat

My media varies from acrylics and watercolors to oils and intaglio prints. My style varies from realistic to loose and airy impressionism depending on what best portrays the subject and its environment. My inspiration is first-hand observation in the environment, then study specimens, and finally reference photos. My goal is to capture the essence of the animal's movement, habits and cycle of life.

Guy Combes

Exploring and describing the magical wonders of Africa are processes that have absorbed me into a thrilling cycle of challenges, accomplishments and further challenges that continually fortify my confidence to paint. This is a journey that I know will lead me towards many new subjects, but my lifelong African experience is so far still proving that around every corner there is a heart stopping new encounter. In my paintings I always attempt to do more than just open a window on a visual...

Animals have always been my passion & living in South Africa, it would be natural to want to despict our wonderful animals in their natural environment. I am extremely fortunate & blessed to bring these animals alive on canvas with my paints & brushes.

Every day it seems, we turn on our media and see pain and strife and ugliness. But that is not the world which we were given. The world we were given is actually extraordinarily ordered and beautiful. My job as an artist is to continually help illuminate that. Every painting I do is defined by that overarching objective. I consider my work to be nothing more than a simple depiction and celebration of the miracles that surround us every day.

When my mind's eye reflects on the natural world, the shape it most often takes is that of a bird.  KED

Mary Erickson

There is a spiritual sense of belonging for me when I am out in Nature. With a childlike excitement, I am awed and inspired by our planet. Paintings are my way of sharing its beauty. As an artist I will leave a body of work that represents my lifelong passion and respect for our environment. I believe there will come a day when the only places we will be allowed a glimpse of true nature will be in the parks and preserves we set aside today. My 39-acre residence in North Carolina is slated to...
