Information about the Spotted Turtle:
The Spotted Turtle is a small aquatic reptile found in the eastern parts of North America, generally in the Great Lakes region and the Eastern Seaboard. The spots can vary from many hundreds to some animals with other a few. Spotted Turtles feed on small fish, crustaceans and snails. They are often kept as pets, but many states now there are laws that prohibit this as the animal is considered endangered or vulnerable in many states. These reptiles prefer to live in areas such as marshes, soggy pastures, bogs, swamps, woodland streams and even drainage ditches.

Artist’s notes:
The Spotted Turtle was completed on 6.11.09. I had been meaning to draw one of these handsome reptiles for some time. I visited the Oakland Zoo one morning and made some photos studies of their resident Spotted Turtles that live in the new reptile and amphibian house. Luckily they were both basking out on logs which gave me a good opportunity to study them. NOTE: Original drawing replaced in 2018

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:
