This painting was produced for the show held at Joanna and husband David's home in 2011.

Television presenter Chris Packham and his partner Charlotte Corney - Director of Isle of Wight Zoo, came to support the show and to help raise money for Tiger Conservation, which is a key focus for the zoo.

Loyal Lion was another hot favourite painting and inspired by words associated with lions such as proud, courageous, protective and loyal.

The theme of the paintings for this exhibition were animals that resided at Charlotte Corney's conservation and rescue zoo on the Isle of Wight, mainly lions and tigers.
