Stacey Young for Gut Aiderbichl

Guest artist Stacey Young 
of Fabulous Animal Rescue Project 
textured acrylic on canvas
12x12
$65




"Salzburg is not only the birthplace of Mozart, but of Gut Aiderbichl, a paradise for animals. This extraordinary sanctuary is the brainchild of Michael Aufhauser, Austria and Germany’s own Doctor Dolittle. Visitors arrive at the complex of gorgeous chalets only to be nudged into considerable interspecies camaraderie with the hundreds of rescued goats, horses, donkeys, chickens, geese, cows and the odd fox. There are few sanctuaries like this one anywhere in the world.

"Michael recently opened amazing outdoor enclosures for their ex-lab chimpanzees. When I watched a video of the chimps being let outside for the first time EVER in their lives I was so incredibly moved. 

"What Michael has done for these chimpanzees and so many other animals is so extraordinary. I was inspired to paint this piece..... a chimpanzee walking out of the turmoil of a life of experiments and torture into the sunlight. 

"This original painting is part of a rescue group series I have started. I wanted to do more to help animals in need and the noble rescue workers who protect them. I thought I could use my art to fund the rescue groups I stand with."

$32.00 of this sale will be donated to Gut Aiderbichl.

Stacey's work through FARP for the animals displaced by the Japan earthquake inspired me to start this blog to raise donations for animal rescue.

"Bobcat: Morris Graves Foundation"

I painted this image after seeing a bobcat on a trail at the Morris Graves Foundation. The wildcat that I actually saw was sunning himself when I came upon him. He sat for quite awhile before turning tail and moving on. I was struck by his rough beauty and grace.

On annual camping trips to North East California and South East Oregon, happening upon a pair of these stately birds has always been a source of joy and wonder for me. When they are accompanied by their young fluffy offspring it is even more entertaining! But that is also worrisome: when I am going to sleep after seeing them I worry about all the predators in the area! This particular bird was one of many thousands gathered along the Platte River in Nebraska, where they have gathered for years to rest on their long Spring migration. The Sandhill is one of the oldest living bird species on earth.

These brilliantly hued songbirds appeared alongside the Mad River near where I live in Blue Lake this Spring! Their lively song enhanced my walks along the levy and this is the 1st of my images of them.

"Golden Thought" is from an ongoing series of bird images on which I work spontaneously. With a loose idea in mind, I randomly  roll out 3 colors of recycled oil based ink  on hard plastic. Then I wipe out my image with cotton swabs and bits of paper towel. When I am satisfied with the emerging image, I place the plastic on the bed of an etching press, cover it with damp rag paper, and roll it through the press. The pressure forces the ink into the paper and the image appears!

This image is a reminder for me of the sacredness of our natural world. The mystery and wonder of a bird and of wildflowers are timeless.
