Wildlife Artists

Today the Society of Wildlife Artists (SWLA) opened its 51st Annual Exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London. This year the "Out of Frame" room will feature the Society’s bird migration project with the British Trust for Ornithology. Four artists visited wintering grounds in Senegal with BTO scientists. Shown is Sahel Wintering Redstart 1 by Bruce Pearson SWLA. My favourites are Richard Tratt's beautiful paintings of butterflies against landscapes, two of which have already been sold online. Both the landscapes and the butterflies are brilliant. CLICK to view them. Admission to the show costs £3 for adults, £2.50 for silver surfers.
