16 Stunning Animal Portraits By Andreas Häggkvist To Raise Awareness For Endangered Species
46Kviews
Beautiful art can be both awe-inspiring and intriguing. Some of it even makes us really think about deeper issues. No matter the level of intensity of the piece, great artworks cause most people to stop, if even for just a moment, to have an emotional experience.
This is why Swedish artist Andreas Häggkvist has taken the opportunity to use his art to raise awareness for endangered species. The artwork, along with his captions, creates a powerful and lasting emotion that moves the viewer to action. At least that is what he is hoping for.
”Just as with melodies, visual images stick with us more than just words. Using the power that art contains, there really is an opportunity for an artist to make a movement for an important cause" - Andreas says.
Let's hope his art not only brings a smile to your face and makes you feel good, but also makes you stop and think for a moment about what is happening to our planet.

I realize that these are digital but they are just beautiful!
Obviously the artist has a great deal of skill. Some of these are hauntingly beautiful. But does anyone else find some of it a little over done?
I agree it is a bit kitschy
Just a tad. Like the ones with all the babies
Agreed, but I still liked it. It's way better than some "I'm offended" post .
Yeah they're a little "too beautiful"
Granted he is skilled, but as the wife of a photographer? WAY too much photoshopping.
It started out incredible and beautiful, but then it's all BABIES, babies everywhere!!! >.>
Eeewwww - they're sticky. And they smell weird.
Some of them stay that way into adulthood!
Beautiful ...but why the babies? They are not endangered by any means...But A for effort?!
Absolutely! "A" for effort! Could babies please become endangered? Like there's not enough of them? Fucking, please.
Maybe it represents one of the reasons why we need to protect these animals, so our children get to see them.
