ABOUT

The National Animal Days Collection by Reavenall Art celebrates wildlife through a creative exploration of national and international animal awareness days. Each piece is completed in the week of its respective date — from National Dog Day and Black Cat Appreciation Day to Red Panda Day and National Pet Bird Day — forming an expressive visual calendar that honours the diversity and spirit of the animal kingdom.

Rendered in ink and ink watercolour, Tamar Reavenall’s artworks balance fine detail with painterly expression. Each illustration captures not just anatomy, but character — the alert stance of a squirrel, the grace of a dolphin, the curiosity of a lizard. The combination of expressive linework and subtle colour washes reflects both artistic observation and affection for her subjects.

The collection brings awareness to animals we live alongside and those we rarely see, offering a moment of recognition for each species’ individuality and importance. Rooted in discipline and compassion, The National Animal Days Collection celebrates how art can transform awareness into appreciation.

The series is shared regularly on Instagram and Facebook (@Reavenallart), where followers can watch the collection unfold throughout the year, each new illustration marking a small but meaningful act of celebration.
