Birgitta Vereecke is frequently and with great enthousiasm in the Artis zoo in Amsterdam. Here she portrays the animals in her own spontaneous way.
A characteristic feature of most vultures is their habit of feeding on cadavers. Their strong gastric juices can eliminate harmful bacteria and viruses, which means that vultures play an important role in the ecosystem and wildlife.

Serge KB versus Harry Skeggs, “Mothership” versus “Making Waves”. (Acrylic on canvas, 80x90 cm) Wales to me are like submarine spaceships. This picture by Harry Skeggs was the perfect opportunity to illustrate my version of those giant underwater spaceships.

Exhibition until 24th of October. @serge_kb @harryskeggs #mothership #walesphotography #wildlifephotography #sirdavidattenborough #underwaterphotography

So many abstract details in oil paint make this be

So many abstract details in oil paint make this beautiful painting by Paul Wright. Wright was also inspired by the photos of wildlife photographer Harry Skeggs for the exhibition “Wild & Free”. (Until 24th October)
Paul Wright: “As a painter I want to confront the subject, and for the subject to confront me. My process allows for movement and a certain ambiguity of personality, and I see all of this in the way Harry often captures his subjects.
The great photographer Robert Capa once said that ‘if your photograph isn’t good enough you aren’t close enough’.
This rings true in the work of all great wildlife photographers, and Harry is no exception. My initial reaction to his photographs is often that he is alarmingly close to what are often highly unpredictable and dangerous animals. And with this brings the feeling of excitement and danger which infuses them with so much energy and life.

I am fortunate to own a very large version of ‘Tooth & Nail’ and am confronted by it every time I walk down the stairs at home. I thought of working from this as it is so familiar to me, however I chose Leonidas as the image to work from as it is exactly how I would want a subject to confront me as an artist, it is direct and compelling and of course menacingly beautiful”.

Born in São Paulo, based in Amsterdam, Dede brings storytelling, expressive ideas and hidden messages through his artworks. Contrast is the essence, highlighted by his strong and unique style, giving different perspectives while looking from far or up close. Black and white predominates, going through darkness and light, gingerly touching surrealism. With strong influences from the sea, the artist invites to dive deep and fly high beyond imagination. Messages about beliefs and making things happen.

This artwork, "Hey Harry!" is painted on mahogany wood. It’s inspired by the photograph ‘Making Waves’ by Harry Skeggs.

Not much is known about the artist from The Hague who makes his art works on the streets under the name @Angst (Fear).
We know he’s a cool guy who became addicted to the spray can at the age of 7 and that he cuts his own stencils by hand. For this exhibition, Angst was inspired by a beautiful lion photo by Harry Skeggs. 2 hand-carved stencils and 4 aerosol colors on a wooden panel.
This painting will be on display in the exhibition ‘Wild & Free”, with a collection of the most beautiful photographs of Harry Skeggs and 12 other artists. The opening will be on 12&13 September.
