Hi everyone....some of you may be aware of a little project I have going which is creating limited edition prints with ALL proceeds going to charity (the artist supplies the art and Roq La Rue donates printing costs). Currently we are supporting the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya, which runs an elephant orphanage and rehabilitation back to the wild program, as well as fostering innovative community projects. Our last print was the Mark Ryden "Bunny Cart" print, and now I'm thrilled to announce Camille Rose Garcia has done a special piece for the project! These look beyond gorgeous in person. Please email me at kirsten@roqlarue.com if you would like to be on a list to be notified when these are ready to go. I expect/hope them to be ready to ship in three weeks.  Camille Rose Garcia "Lil Elorphant" giclee on heavy watercolor stock approx 11" x 17" with deckled edges (not seen here) edition of 100 signed and numbered $400 + shipping |

Question: How do I go about trying to purchase a baby rhino? My German Shepherd is a decent guard dog, but I think he would work even better if he were teamed with a baby rhino.

Hey folks- I got these in and they are ready to ship next week! Here are the details if you want one of these gorgeous things: The prints are actually a bit larger than I had stated- they are 14.5 x 17. The edges are hand deckled and look wonderful. They are all hand signed and numbered in pencil by Camille. These do not come with cert's of authenticity. I will be shipping these wrapped in acid free paper and in a heavy cardboard tube. I will begin shipping next week! How to pay: You have two options to pay for the print: 1. Directly donate to the David Sheldrick Trust online for $400 and then email me your confirmation email that you receive from the Trust. (Your cc info will not be on the receipt.) You can do that here: www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/html/help_USA.htmlOR 2. Send me a check for $400 made out to: US Friends of David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (NOT Roq La Rue) You have two options to pay for shipping: 1. You can paypal me your shipping charge at checkout@roqlarue.com and putting "elephant" in the subject line. OR 2. You may mail me a check for $25 made out to Roq la Rue. I hope this is easier than having everyone send money orders. Please let me know if you have any questions or if I need to clarify anything! And THANK YOU for picking up a print and donating to a great organization. They are in desperate straights and everything really helps! Best, Kirsten |

I got my print today, and it's absolutely stunning. Between the richness of the paper, quality of the printing, and deckled edge - this is a tremendous print of a tremendous image. It's for a great cause, too!
