📣 Artist Announcement! 📣
Welcoming the wonderfully talented Jenny Leonard to the herd! 🎨
Jenny told us: "My style varies lots but I mainly work with big build abstract faces.
"I have completed more than 70 sculptures for Wild in Art over the last 10 years and have raised over £270k for partnering charities!
"Witnessing people out on the trail getting selfies with all the sculptures is a real joy to see as an artist."

Welcoming the Wild in Art wonder that is Jess Perrin to the herd! 🎨
Jess told us: "I first started with the Big Sleuth in Birmingham. Since then I’ve painted over 70 sculptures for Wild in Art, and a selection of those sculptures have sold at auction for more than £200,000!
I’m most looking forward to seeing my sculpture out on the streets for the public to see! It’s always such a lovely time to see people engaging with my work in a positive way – people of all ages can get something lovely out of each and every work of art!" 🎨

Welcoming the amazingly talented Marnie Maurri to the herd! 🎨
Marnie told us: "My work tends to be a whimsical combination of adorable characters, intricate details and magical settings, and I`m very much inspired by nature and the natural world.
"I`ve taken part in quite a few Wild in Art trails – my first in 2018 for Worcester Stands Tall – caught the sculpture bug immediately, and I`m heading towards my 20th sculpture!
"These projects are an absolute joy from start to finish, but I always look forward to seeing my sculpture out on the streets making people smile!"
