BBC WILDLIFE ARTIST OF THE YEAR 2010

BBC Wildlife Artist of the year - Laurence Saunois, artiste peintre animalier

Art contributes to happiness!

"I believe that artistic creation is essential to happiness and personal growth for everyone. That is why, as an animal artist, I create works of art inspired by nature to connect people with the natural and wild world around them. Each creation is unique and will connect you in some way to the serenity and tranquility of the animal or plant kingdom. Bringing one of my paintings into your home means embracing a way of seeing life through contemporary animal art.
My artistic journey continues today with Nympheus Luminansis, the Water Lilies of Light, a contemporary reinterpretation of the water garden by Claude Monet, master of the Impressionist movement, currently on a museum tour in the USA. This exploration of light, color, and the plant world complements my established work as an animal painter"
