We saw these little Manning River turtle hatchlings at the Australian Reptile Park over summer, part of their wonderful breeding program to boost numbers of this threatened species in the wild.
 
This is an original 6 x 6 inch ink on scratchboard work, finished in a black timber float frame without glass (18 x 18 cm). The art panel has been sprayed with several coats of U.V resistant, non-yellowing, archival quality varnish to help protect it. If required, a dry, soft, lint-free cloth may be used to gently dust the artwork.
