An artist's assistant puts in long hours, a nap is always needed.

POSSUM SUGAR IS THE SWEETEST!!!!!

We have a new website: www.centralcarolinawildlife.org

  Our Patchwork Possum website is Newly revised, so if you have a minute you should take a look:).  There is a lot of wildlife art work available there as well.

Thanks for taking time to read about me.

My name is Beth Vivian. My husband and I live in North Carolina, and are wildlife rehabilitators. We have spent a several years now, caring for wildlife, and it is truly our passion. I started painting pictures of some of the animals we took in, a couple of years ago, and had friends that wanted some of my artwork, so I decided to try to sell it. I listed my first piece on ebay two years ago, and while I haven't sold a lot, what I have listed has been successful. I spend the majority of my time caring for the wildlife that we take in, and in my free time, I paint, needle felt and sculpt.  Obviously opossums are my favorite, but I also love working with raccoons. Unfortunately in North Carolina, it is illegal to rehabilitate raccoons :(, as well as any of the other rabies vector animals. Still I spent a couple years working with raccoons, and hopefully, one day, will get to again.

We are state and federally licensed to house and care for indigenous wildlife and birds, and we also have a deer permit. We are growing fast and our 501c3 non-profit status and USDA License are pending!

We have a great board of directors, and we are striving to expand our rescue efforts to help many more animals in need:)
