I've been told that the crocodile sculpture I painted for the Edinburgh Jungle City campaign sold for £5,000 at an auction hosted by Sotheby's at the National Museum of Scotland.
I feel proud to have been involved with such a successful campaign, helping to raise vital funds and awareness for endangered wildlife across Asia.

The 'Edinburgh Jungle City 2011' campaign kicked off in the Royal Botanic Gardens on the 16th August. The animals will be here until the 6th September, whereafter they hit the streets of Edinburgh for 3 weeks.
I took some photos during my visit, which can be viewed here.
All the sculptures will be auctioned off on the 29th September at the National Museum of Scotland, raising funds for Elephant Family and other selected charities.
The Duchess of Cornwall recently had an opportunity to preview some of the sculptures for Elephant Family's 'Jungle City', set to take place in Edinburgh this summer.
Here she is standing with some of the sculptures, including 'Crocodile Rock':
