Artist's Comments

This majestic bird of prey is the Philippine Eagle (Pithecophaga jefferyi)

I painted this to convey the present condition of this critically endangered specie.

It is estimated that there are only several hundreds left of these beautiful raptor and that their population is on the decline in the wild.

It is my dream to see them once again take their flight and soar our skies...

NOW is the time to save them...

For more information on their conservation you can visit The Philippine Eagle Foundation website [link]

Special thanks to Mr. Neon Tomas Buenaflor Rosell II for allowing me to use his photo for reference.

Paper: Canson Mi-Tientes
