"The best part of being a wildlife artist is bringing
people into a deeper understanding and appreciation of the natural world
through my work."
Wildlife artist Rachelle Siegrist uses her paintings to draw individuals intimately close to the beauty of wildlife in their world. Her passion for conservation stems from an inability
to conceive of life without wildlife. She strives to convey the simple backyard beauty around each of us in such a way that no one would again take it for granted. Her efforts are realized each time an admirer walks off and notices the natural beauty rushing up around them. The permeating peace that results from walking down a trail through the woods quietly observing nature in its natural, untouched setting, is to the artist the primary message she desires her work to convey to the viewer.
The Artist and her husband, Wes, are both signature members of the Hilliard Society, the Miniature Artists of America, the Society of Animal Artists, the Cider Painters of America, the Miniature Painters Sculptors and Gravers Society of Washington, D.C., and the Miniature Art Society of Florida. The Siegrists currently reside in Townsend, Tennessee beside the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in the United States. |
