ABC Action News Segment!

I was SO nervous. Never in my wildest dreams when I took Wild Planet Creations full time just over 2 years ago did I think that I would have a news reporter come to my art studio, film me painting, and interview me about my mission as a wildlife artist (and how excited I was to be one of 5 Local Artist Spotlights at the Gasparilla Festival of the Arts). I mean talk about INSANE! I was sweating for sure haha but I think everything turned out okay! Let me know what you think!

The official news segment aired on February 25th through March 2nd, 2025. Reporter, Robert Boyd, of ABC Action News was an excellent interviewer and made me feel comfortable in conversation. There was a short part of the segment that I showed off my rescued Kenyan sand boa, Nigel, that the immediate audience wasn't too sure of at first, but I think Nigel won them over in the end. He's so adorable, how could you not love him!
