Bisons subject of SEWE poster unveiling

Southeastern Wildlife Exposition unveiled the 2012 poster at the 'Take Flight' concert tonight.

Entitled 'Morning Graze,' the poster features two American bison grazing on a grassy hillside in the morning sunlight with mountains behind them. The original oil painting was created by Dustin Van Wechel, the Featured Painter for SEWE 2012. He is a resident of Gilbert, Arizona and a signature member in both the Society of Animal Artists and the Pastel Society of America. He has won numerous awards for his wildlife paintings.

The Exposition will be held February 17-19, 2012 in multiple venues throughout downtown Charleston. This event will mark 30 years of wildlife art exhibitions, conservation awareness and outdoor sporting pursuits.
