Description
This work has a powerful and poignant message. Drawn in Derwent Art Pastel Pencils on 300gsm Snow White Daler-Rowney Canford card by conservation artist Martin Aveling who won the Environmental Artivism category at the prestigious David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year Awards (WAY) in London in 2024, he says:-
“This artwork references the growing disconnect between humanity and the rest of nature. It speaks to mitigating human/wildlife conflict and a need for a return to coexistence.”
Martin is a signature member of ‘Artists for Conservation’ and he coined the phrase ‘wildlife artivism’ to encourage stronger calls to actions in the creative output of working wildlife artists.
