The Artist
Andrew is a much-acclaimed wildlife artist, best known for his stunning paintings of birds of prey, falconry, gamebirds and his powerful dramatic African art.

Andrew’s work is collected worldwide, and he has exhibited successfully in the middle East, America and Europe and from 1997 to 2011 in the prestigious London based gallery “The Halcyon” in Mayfair.

The Cause
The Falconry Fund was created in 2016 by NAFA and both organizations possess resources designed to benefit falconry, wildlife conservation and their related activities and interests. Despite their common objectives the organizational structure and activities of each are distinct and the Falconry Fund is a registered 501(C)(3) charitable organization. All funds generated by the organization are used towards falconry related conservation, education and preservation efforts, including NAFA’s small grants program. For those who are charitably inclined, it is a tax-saving opportunity (USA citizens only), to give back to the sport and organization that has given us so much enjoyment through our lives by way of an end-of-life donation that is tax deductible.
Good luck and thank you for your support!
