CHEETAH CUB. 1994  Limited edition print publication date: 1994 Edition size: 850 copies Published price: £30.50 Maximum known secondary market price sold for: £900 Gary says “I wanted to make this a very simple composition to showcase the cheekiness and the sparkling eyes of the cub. Who’d imagine this ball of fluff could transform into such a sleek, elegant creature? “Cheetah cub was drawn especially for my big charity show at the Mall Galleries in 1994. It was auctioned by Bernard Cribbins OBE at the private view evening, along with my 1993 Snow leopard, 1994 Bengal Tigress and cub and a number of older limited edition prints. Cheetah cub sold for way over the £900 - £1,500 guide price, at £2,000. Bernard did good! “A print of Cheetah Cub sold at a recent Born Free charity auction at the Mall Galleries in 2010. The auctioneer this time was TV’s Eric Knowles and the print went for a record £900. "The latest way Cheetah Cub is helping animals is through the Giving Lots Charity auction website. The print will be auctioned in aid of Care 4 Cats Ibiza. This charity was set up in 2000 to try and solve the huge problem of feral cats in Ibiza. To date they have neutered over 9,000 cats which has massively reduced the population and now there are now far less starving and diseased cats around. In turn this has also helped the wild birds that feral cats often feed on.” Previous Next |
