About the artist, Alain Rasolo: 

I'm a Malagasy wildlife artist. My favorite medium is watercolor, but I also like graphic design and various handicrafts. I was born on March 5th, 1991 in the city of Vatomandry on the east coast of Madagascar and I grew up in Toamasina, the major city on the east, there I started to practice drawing more seriously. I discovered the joy of painting during a field trip for my Licence degree in Biodiversity Conservation and Environment in Tampolo, a protected area in the North of Toamasina. Aside from doing art for art's sake, I also had the chance to work with some conservation and education organizations such as Madagascar Fauna and Flora Group, PLAY Madagascar and Centre ValBio, mainly making outreach and educational materials. My goal is to learn as much artistic skill as I can, to explore the wiggly world of nature and to bring my anjara biriky to the conservation effort through art.
