SUBMISSION: Clarence by Stefanie Nellett

"Male lion created on a palm frond with Spanish moss as the mane. Painted using acrylics sealed with a UV matte finish varnish. Stefanie Nellett is a resident of Sebring Florida and has no formal training. Her works can be viewed at various galleries across the United States.

As an artist I have always had a passion for capturing endangered animals in my works. I also enjoy working in mixed media using palm fronds and moss as my canvas, after they have fallen on the ground. No trees are hurt in any way. I believe animals should never be exploited or harmed in anyway. There is no purpose in that. Instead their beauty and majesty should be viewed in their natural surroundings."
