Art is a wonderful tool to instill an appreciation for the beauty of
wild tigers in all age-groups. Anyone who draws or paints a picture of
this amazing animal will be communicating the value and importance of
wild tigers to others.
Save The Tiger Fund has chosen this charismatic animal as a
flagship species - which is a charismatic animal that
serves as an example to educate people about conservation issues
affecting all ecosystems. Tigers are also an umbrella species
- they have a very wide distribution and by protecting
tigers, we will save many other plants and animals in Asia.
Why don't you arrange a tiger art competition in your school or tiger
club? Here are some criteria that judges might consider:
Is the picture well composed with a good focal point?
Are the colors well balanced?
Is the subject well-chosen and original?
Does the picture make good use of light and form or
design?
Does the picture capture "tigerness"?
We have had many wonderful submissions of pictures painted by people
of all ages and walks of life.
