$19.95 – $27.95
Information about the Eastern Indigo Snake:
The Eastern Indigo Snake – also called the blue indigo snake, black snake, blue gopher snake, and blue bull snake – is native to the flatwoods, hammocks, dry glades, stream bottoms, cane fields, and riparian thickets of southern South Carolina into Florida and west to Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. It is notable as it is the longest native snake in North America, generally reaching lengths of over six feet long, with the all-time longest snake on record being nine feet two inches. Females are usually a little smaller than the males. The snake is non-venomous, and will generally avoid contact with humans. If provoked it will bite however. The Eastern Indigo Snake is carnivorous, feeding on frogs, turtles, lizards, toads, small mammals and birds. Due to habitat loss the snake is now federally protected in Georgia and Florida, and it may be extirpated in Alabama.

Artist’s notes:
The Eastern Indigo Snake was completed on 5.15.2013. A friend suggested I draw this snake, and while I like to consider all requests, this one was tricky because of the all of the black. It took me quite a while to fill it all in, but I think the results are pretty good. I put the snake on a bed of green leaves, because I feel it makes the animal stick out more, and the colors compliment each other. The drawing is based on a photo by Pierson Hill.

Olive Ridley Sea Turtle – Signed Fine Art Print
Information about the Olive Ridley Sea Turtle:
The Olive Ridley Sea Turtle - also called the Pacific Ridley Sea Turtle - is considered the most abundant sea turtle on the planet. These reptiles get their name from the coloring of their heart-shaped shell, which starts out gray but becomes olive green later in life. There may be more than one million in the world's oceans today. Compared to other sea turtle species adults are relatively small, weighing on average around 100 pounds (45 kg). Olive Ridleys can be seen at nesting sites on beaches all around the planet, generally in tropical and subtropical areas. When the females are getting ready to nest, its believed they use the wind and the tide to help them find the beach. Females will lay about a hundred eggs, and may nest 1-3 times a year. Olive Ridleys are mostly carnivorous, feeding on such creatures as jellyfish as well as small crustaceans such as crabs and shrimp. It is the only living species not considered to be endangered - although it is classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources as vulnerable.The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
