Wildlife Watercolors and Acrylics--North American Birds & Animals

Sandra Blair

It is not the language of painters but the language of nature
which one should listen to. The feeling for the things themselves,
for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.
--Vincent Van Gogh

In today’s fast-paced world, we often overlook the bounty of wild creatures that have adapted to human encroachment and shrinking habitat to live their lives among us. As a wildlife artist, my challenge is to capture a fleeting moment in nature…that split second of wonder when you come into the presence of an animal in its natural environment.

I also strive to tell a story, to create a curiosity about the environment beyond the picture plane. My goal is to (re)introduce the beauty of our natural world and engage the viewer in a dialogue about the urgent need to conserve our natural spaces and to educate younger generations about the critical responsibility they must assume if wildlife is to survive. In today’s profit-driven society, we can no longer depend on the government to preserve natural habitat and protect the sanctity of our national parks. It is up to communities, corporations and individuals to embrace environmentally-sound practices, advocate ongoing protection of our threatened and endangered species and cultivate more wild spaces—whether on large tracts of land or in our own backyards.
