Wildlife original drawings by Vanessa Grundy
Let’s start with the best places where a wildlife artist can get the maximum inspiration. Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Alaska: If you want to venture into the wild to click some amazing pictures then here is another place which is a must visit for you. With the rugged mountains, dynamic glaciers, temperate rain falls, Glacier National park is the best for wildlife photography. Whether it’s the vivid wildlife or the Glacier Bay this region has a lot to offer. One can find the rarest glacier blue bear at Glacier Bay. This place is also home to a large bear population, both brown and black. Also, clicks some of the best shots of the endangered humpback whale, orcas, threatened stellar sea lions, harbor seals, sea otters and porpoises.
Uganda: Did you know mountain gorillas sleep in nests? If you don’t believe us, then join a wildlife photography holiday to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and see for yourself. Porters carry your kit, but you need to be in decent physical shape as some trekking is necessary – man’s closest cousin changes his sleeping location every night. A steady hand is useful – it’s not unknown for gorillas to take an interest in their visitors and come up for a closer look.

I believe transparency is super important with my customers, and so I will soon be setting up a new page on my website illustrating the causes that we will be supporting including the total amount of donations that have been made through product purchases by customers! Between now and the 10th of January, all profits from sales made on my website will be donated to the emergency fund at WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.) which is being used to help rescue sick, injured, or orphaned wildlife affected by the ongoing bushfires.
