Original painting in pastel and charcoal by artist.
Lemurs, our close cousins, along with most other large mammals, have been poached and hunted to the brink of extinction. There are at this point about 590 Red-Ruffed Lemurs remaining in the wild.
Please note that I donate 20% of my profits on the sale of this and other wildlife artwork to non-profit charities for conservation, such as the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). So, thanks for your support - you've truly made a difference!!!
About the Artist:
Hi there, Art Lover! I’m glad you visited my page!
I’m an artist, photographer, and globetrotter, yet, for my mundane day job, I teach science as a university professor. I primarily show endangered animals in my artwork. I’ve regularly travel to far-flung destinations around the world in search of endangered wildlife, natural wonders, and indigenous races. Thus far, I’ve traveled to forty-seven countries across six continents to catch a glimpse of these magnificent creatures, which I then paint to show them in my work.
I’ve thus far been traditional, showing these at galleries around the world, including Paris, New York, and San Francisco, but have recently decided to start my own website to reach my clients more closely. As a commitment to my play my part to try to reverse this maddening race to extinction, I donate over half of my profits from the sale of artwork on Ebay to nonprofit charities, such as World Wildlife Fund (WWF). And Ocean Conservancy. So together let’s save these creatures and our planet! 😊

More About the Artist:
From the mighty blue whale to the lowly dung beetle, my art has always been a celebration of life everywhere. It’s characterized by bold strokes and colorful motifs and shows the penetrating gaze of the denizens that live alongside us. Most of what I paint are animals that are critically endangered, to the point where some of them might not even survive as a species in the time it takes for my work to be hung on a gallery wall. Others are exotic, playful and quirky, but they’re all infinitely precious, and have no less right to live on this planet than any of us. We owe it to the children of the future – both theirs and ours – to ensure that they survive… and thrive well.
