Award-winning photographer Art Wolfe has worked on every continent and in hundreds of locations over the course of his forty-year career. His stunning images interpret and record the world's fast-disappearing natural treasures and are a lasting inspiration to those who seek to preserve them. Wolfe's photographs are recognized throughout the world for their mastery of color, composition, and perspective, and his photographic mission is multifaceted--art, wildlife advocacy, and journalism all inform his world. Human Canvas is a synthesis of his talents and expertise, marrying his background in the arts and painting with his photographic skill and firsthand knowledge of indigenous cultures. His other works include Earth Is My Witness, Trees, and Migrations.
