As part of my my love of the natural world and my commitment to the the conservation of Canadian wildlife I have partnered with the extraordinary people at Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre. I will be donating 20% of the sales of the art in the “Sandy Pines Series” to Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre. Subscribe to my newsletter and watch this space for more ways to support Sandy Pines!
For 25 years, Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre has operated from Sandy Pines Farm, just west of Napanee on Highway 2. Their mission: aid injured and orphaned wildlife, facilitating their return to the wild and offering humane solutions for animal relocation. Additionally, their education outreach program promotes compassion and care for our wild neighbors through presentations across the region.
