Zoo series-tiger

This looks like it is my last image

on my zoo series.

The series was conceived to honour my sister-

a vet interested in conservation.

At one time she wished to be a zoo vet.

As well, she considered training to be a Noah.

Noah's train on the Channel islands in England.
Once trained they travel the world for free

as volunteers trying to help the plight

of endangered species of animals.

Finally, she did a lot of fund-raising for

the World Wildlife fund.

I hope that you enjoyed the series.

Have an-altruistic-kind of day.

This image charmed me.

The giant panda is one of the flagship

species of the World Wildlife fund.

As well, their logo is a panda.

I hope that you enjoy this image.

Have a do-a- past-time kind of day.

This is the 7th image from my zoo series.

Rhinocerouses are one of the World Wildlife

Fund's (WWF) flagship endangered species.

Apparently there are very few rhinocerouses

outside of nature reserves any longer.

The WWF web-site is http://www.worldwildlife.org/

I hope that you enjoy this charming image.

Have a caring-for-others kind of day.

Gorilla-Zoo Series

This is the 6th animal I have painted for my

zoo series. It was probably the most challenging

to draw and paint.

Apes are one of the protected species of the

World Wildlife fund.

I hope that you enjoy this image.

Have a no monkey-business kind of day.

Polar Bear-Zoo series

This is the 5th image in my zoo series. The zoo series
is an effort to honour my sister. She is a vet and
at one point wanted to be a zoo vet. She has
always been interested in conservation and has done
alot of fund-raising for the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).

The WWF protects habitats for endangered species
and educates the local population about conservation
efforts.

The polar bear is what they call one of their
flagship species. The WWF focuses intensely on about
10 species and the polar bear is one of them.

The web-site for the WWF is
www.worldwildlife.org

I hope that you enjoy this image.

Have a devoted-to-a-cause kind of day.

Helen.
