Artist Statement
This artwork is inspired by the beauty of Blue Iguana, one of the endangered species.
I am a young animal artist. Through my works I am showing beauty and importance of the natural world. There are many possible ways to contribute to conservation biology. And I chose my own. Through my art works, exhibition and special events I urge the people to pay attention to the wildlife and protect it. It is unbelievable how uneducated people are about natural world. It is true that public do not contribute much to conservation biology, but one of the reasons for this is a non-acquaintance of the fact that wildlife needs our protection. The only way that I see to change the situation is to attract, educate and engage people by all possible methods and means. And the art is one of those means!
