Animal art or art made with animals?

The art up for auction is a unique collaboration between 8 local artists and 8 Topeka Zoo animals. This fun endeavor, coordinated by DeAna Morrison of Amused gallery, has produced a unique collection of art in varying styles.  Each piece of art includes contributions from both artist and animal. The painting process for the animals is an enriching and sensory-stimulating activity. Doug Frye has teamed up with Cassie the mountain Lion. Lisa LaRue Baker has paired with Rudy the orangutan. Sara Myer chose Albert the otter. Andrea Nix is painting with Tembo the Elephant. Devin Wineinger will team up with the Tigers. Nancy Jones chose Vision the hippo, and Allison Smith is working with the Lorikeets.

Don't miss the silent auction!
