Item Description

Sometimes we look for inspiration and other times it shows up when we least expect it. Like this acrylic piece that Belinda Stewart did of Champa, the first elephant we rescued. We met Champa on scorching tarmac on a very hot summer day. This painting with the copper glowing background reminds us of that day. This beautiful elephant clearly needed our help. Meeting her all those years ago planted the seed that we needed to do something to help elephants in similar situations across India.

Size: 8 inches x 10 inches acrylic framed

About the Artist: Belinda Stewart lives in St. Augustine, Florida. She works in all mediums but favors watercolors. She studied in private classes with famed watercolorist Mun Quan and art classes at Jacksonville University. All her watercolors are painted on professional Arches watercolor paper with Windsor Newton paints.

From the Artist: "Wildlife SOS has captured my heart with their ongoing love and care for all the animals retiring at their sanctuaries. From freeing Raju from chains and the legal battles to rescue sweet Mohan, it is an ongoing endeavor to save as many as possible. Since being retired, it has been pure joy seeing a photo posted of an elephant, bear or leopard and setting it aside to become inspiration for my watercolors and acrylics."
