About WYLAND:
Marine life artist Wyland has developed an international reputation for his commitment to marine life conservation, most notably his monumental marine life murals, the Whaling Walls. Spanning thousands of square feet, these massive works of art expose more than one billion people each year to the thrilling diversity and beauty of life that exists below the surface of our ocean planet. Today, this multi-faceted artist works in multiple mediums, from oils, watercolors, acrylics, Japanese ink paintings, bronze sculptures, fine art photography, and mixed media. He is considered one of the most successful working artists today, with galleries throughout the United States, and more than half a million collectors around the world. Each of his works speaks of our beautiful but fragile marine ecosystem.
Dedicated to saving our water resources through art and education, his non-profit Wyland Foundation seeks to further that end. Perhaps, most importantly, the Wyland Foundation, in partnership with the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, is actively engaged in alerting millions of students around the world to become caring, informed stewards of our oceans, rivers, lakes, streams, and wetlands.
