NEWA

Gordale Garden Centre, Burton, Wirral

'The National Exhibition of Wildlife Art is an open annual exhibition based in the North of England.

NEWA was conceived in 1994 by a group of artists interested in depicting wildlife, with conservation as one of their underlying concerns. A donation from the exhibition is made each year to wildlife causes.
The aims of the exhibition are to promote and display outstanding examples of wildlife art from both professional and amateur artists.
The huge interest generated by the exhibition among wildlife artists proved that there was a pressing need for this kind of event.

The exhibition is staged at Gordale Garden Centre in a specially constructed gallery space which attracts a constant stream of visitors, over 15,000 to the 2009 show. The new website attracts an equal number of visitors and sells to buyers both in the UK and abroad.'

The paintings I submitted were the following:

Very pleased to say the 'Young Rabbit' affectionately known as 'Buggs' sold at the preview night, fingers crossed for the other two!
