Wild & Bright

Wild & Bright: A Tribute to the Rare and Radiant Beings We Share This Earth With is a digital illustration series that celebrates vulnerable animal species through luminous, vibrant artworks. This glowing collection builds on my past award-winning work for the United Nations Biological Diversity initiative and San Francisco’s Let’s Glow SF downtown revitalization campaign. The project spotlights creatures such as the Red Panda, Lemur, Sloth, Orangutan, Clouded Leopard, Koala, Rhino, Giraffe, Zebra, Lion, Bongo, and Gorilla—each paired with native plants from their habitats to honor their ecological stories and interconnectedness.

What began as a personal response to biodiversity loss has evolved into a community-facing initiative. In May 2025, Wild & Bright was featured at the San Francisco Apple Store Union Square to engage the public through art and storytelling. In June, it became the visual centerpiece of the San Francisco Zoo’s fundraising gala, with proceeds supporting wildlife conservation.

Sitting at the intersection of art, education, and advocacy, Wild & Bright invites collective care through color, symbolism, and the power of visual narrative—reminding us that protecting the rare and radiant beings of this Earth is both a shared responsibility and a source of wonder.
