Save Guana Cay Reef Association has announced that they’'ve named Colorado
watercolor artist Tanya Haynes as their official artist of record. Ms. Haynes has
been selected for logo design as well as the development of a line of original art
and related products. With the sale of these products the Save Guana Cay Reef Assn.
hopes to increase the awareness of the fragility of Guana Cay and its spectacular
coral reef. The Cay and reef are in danger of being completely destroyed by a large developer.
Classically trained in fine arts, watercolor artist Tanya Haynes paints
the places and things she knows and loves the best. She paints what she
sees, using strong composition and color, capturing the unique and
unusual beauty found only while diving the ocean depths. Scuba diving allows
her to study the ocean reefs and all their inhabitants. Most of Tanya’s
paintings are started on location and completed in her studio in Colorado.
As a member of CORAL and REEF organizations dedicated to protecting our oceans,
Haynes’ goal is to share her awareness of the fragile, delicate
balance an ocean reef needs to sustain life. Tanya Haynes has participated in many
exhibitions and juried shows and is the recipient of numerous awards for her work.
The Save Guana Cay Reef Association is a group who resides on Guana Cay,
a small island in the northern Bahamas. Their mission is to protect this
natural wonder, ensuring a lasting legacy for Abaconians. World-renowned coral
reef scientists have predicted that, if permitted to go ahead, this development
will destroy the coral reef in three short years.
Haynes will travel to Guana Cay March 6-9, 2006 to explore the Island and dive it’s reefs.
Upon her return to Colorado she will start the development of paintings which
will include the Abaco’s parrots, some of the 5,000 rare orchids, bromeliads,
casuarina trees, mangroves and the fragile coral reefs sitting just 50 feet offshore.
Also at risk are the nesting grounds of the Hawksbill, Green and Loggerhead turtles,
all of which are on the protected and endangered species list.
