when godwits return, Hobbies fledge, and I submit work to the Society of Wildlife Artists Annual Exhibition (SWLA) for near-certain rejection.
Maybe this year I will sneak one in- last time I had one that got a "nearly accepted" sticker, with a kind note telling me that it was booted for having a crap frame. So this year a new framing strategy is in place!
Of course, there are other wildlife art societies and exhibitions out there, but for the most part they are looking for tigers and wolves painted off photos etc. So SWLA remains the one too strive for...
