Hello! My name is Deanna Cordova, and I am an artist from Reno, Nevada, who celebrates the beauty of wildlife through my paintings. I focus on bringing attention to the animals we share this planet with, especially those in the Arctic, capturing their life, character, and the urgent need for their conservation.

I’ve been accepted into the Château de La Napoule Artist Residency in France, where I’ll have the opportunity to exchange ideas with other artists, develop my techniques, and continue my ongoing projects highlighting wildlife and conservation. This residency will allow me to explore new ways of storytelling through my art and bring attention to the animals and habitats that are at risk.

I am raising funds to help cover travel, materials, and living expenses while I am at the residency. Your support will make it possible for me to fully immerse myself in this experience and continue creating art that inspires action to protect the animals we share our world with. Any contribution, big or small, will make a meaningful difference, and I am incredibly grateful for your support.
