Rhino Rescue Trust
depends on your generous support for the continuation of our current
projects.Your support in the past has been fundamental to the
success of Rhino Rescue Trust's work with wildlife. As our projects
grow we hope very much that you will continue to give us the backing
so urgently required.
Your money will not
be frittered away. It will go straight to the projects under Rhino
Rescue Trust control. Where something needs doing, we do it, where
equipment must be bought, we buy it. Where people are employed,
we pay them direct.With all these projects we only operate on
public land and we never give money to third parties so your contribution
goes direct to our people on site.

Mark Coreth
- Sculptor and Vice President
Rhino Rescue Trust
Sculpture Course
Mark is using his talent as an artist to raise
funds for RRT. Whilst he has no formal art training his ability
is based quite simply on dedication and hard work, coupled with
an acute and perceptive eye, drawing heavily on experiences gained
during his early years in Kenya. Mark's sculptures reflect his
instictive understanding of the moods of the animals he sculpts.
|
Working
with extraordinary speed, if the original plasticine or clay fails
to speak to him within a couple of hours, Mark destroys it and starts
again. He captures violence, speed, tranquility and pathos with
deceptive ease, and is now internationally recognised as a master
of the animal in motion.
As well as his regular one-man shows at the Sladmore, Mark has shown
in Galerie La Cymaise in Paris and the Martyn Cook Gallery, Sydney,
Australia. His lifesize 'Leopard in a Tree' is on permanent loan
to London Zoo, and he has recently completed a lifesize piece of
'Two Cheetahs in a Tree' for the ruling family of Dubai; a lifesize
figure for the Globe Theatre and has been commissioned by the Natural
History Museum for a major outdoor sculpture to be sited in the
museum grounds. |

Further to this he has just finished
the new perpetual trophy for Chatswoth - a new international one-day
event - and two life size pieces for the Worshipful Company of
Leather Sellers - Ram and a Roe Buck.

Wildlife
Artist Jane Alcorn Donates Gum Boots
|
 |
While on Simon
Combes' Artist Safari in June 2003, Jane became involved in helping
the Rhino Rescue staff in Lake Nakuru National Park. Enlisting
the help of Simon, the safari operator, Anthony Cheffings and
the other artists, she went into Nakuru town and purchased the
gum boots and then handed the boots out to each of our staff.
As you can see the boots are very much appreciated by them and
the gift really boosted thier morale.
