#SKETCHFORWILDLIFE:  

Each year, the talented artists who take part in DSWF Wildlife Artist of the Year are invited to participate in #SketchForWildlife.   

By painting or drawing a small image on a postcard it gives visitors to the online exhibition a chance to own a totally unique piece of work, by a highly sought after collection of artists.   

The postcards have always been extremely popular and we hope you will support this initiative which allows more people to own a unique piece of original art, albeit on a slightly smaller scale. The subject and medium of the postcard was entirely up to the artist, with the subject matter being their own celebration of the natural world.    

100% of the proceeds from this sale will support the charitable work of David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation (DSWF) and our ground-based conservation partners across Africa and Asia.  

ARTIST BIOGRAPHY: 

With a foundation in classical drawing and painting, Michaelah Baburin’s art practice is underpinned by her love for the character and beauty of Australia’s native flora and fauna, notably its birdlife. From her studio on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, Michaelah creates isolated, larger-than-life, realistic portraits, which magnify the detail of her subjects. The idea is to capture the essence of each character and their unique beauty and give them a place to tell their own story.
