Ed Newbold - Wildlife Artist

Working the Docks

Welcome to the

Ed Newbold Wildlife Artist homepage!

NOTICE: Website is working fine except ON-LINE store ISN'T TAKING ANYONE'S MONEY for some reason. You can still purchase by check & snail mail.

(Very sorry. I am working on this, which means there's no chance it'll get fixed for over a week at best. Anyone who wants to pay by bankcard is welcome to call the store at 206 652 5215. We'd love to hear from you however, there is only one of us there and we have to prioritize customers in the store we're already talking to and it can be hard to hear through the line because of all the fish-throwing going on. But please, feel free to give us a call!)

If you are a returning customer from the Pike Place Market store in downtown Seattle, WA, USA, Thank You! We hope this website can provide a helpful way to “revisit” the store and/or give us feedback.

Orcas

Orcas is now available at the store at Pike Place Market

Online Store: If you found us from cyberspace, Welcome! I am a wildlife artist who has been in business since 1983, I work in gouache, and have hundreds of prints, posters and notecards available here.

Our shipping rates are reasonalbe (always $6.00 per order) and we try to turn orders around in a day or so and then ship Priority Mail which arrives in two days. We've tried to make ordering easy-- please feel free to email us with questions or suggestions.

Lots of artists will show you the painting once it's finished, but at What's on the easel, I show you the painting from start to finish and everywhere in between, as it progresses. The creation process isn't always pretty, sometimes I debate myself, and anyone is welcome to chip in with advice or solutions that might solve a problem!.

As a wildlife artist, I try to get out in the field as much as I can and when I do I like to take pictures, some of which end up planting painting ideas. (I also use as reference many other (better) photographers and would like to put in a plug right now for all the wildlife photographers of the world. Without their work, we would be even less aware of how beautiful nature and the critters are. At Ed's Sightings you can see recent shots I've taken in the field and here and there. Sometimes this page ends up being a running account of what's going on in our backyard, which we've tried to make natural with no lawn, and on the trips Delia & I have taken.

Go to Viewpoints if you are interested in thoughts and opinions on various subjects. Many of the viewpoints are about conservation. One discusses ways of helping swallows survive in urban areas, another is a tribute to the work of the late Kevin Li in helping re-establish Seattle's Purple Martins, and others focus on shade coffee and eco-touring.

This is also the home of the YardBirdRace, a Western Washington birding competition in which the excitement builds all year long!

I'd like to thank Cartwheel Creative of Seattle, WA for designing this site.

Thanks so much for visiting us, we certainly hope you enjoy your visit!
