The result of my two Zany Zebras entry in the auction

The final part of the Zany Zebra's campaign took place on the 18 October 2016. It was an auction where all of the full sized painted Zebras were sold off in a big event held at the 'Hilton at the Ageas Bowl', near to Southampton, which is where the original trail showing all the Zebras on the streets of the city had been held during the summer. 
I'm pleased to report that my Zebras each both went for £3000, a figure that I am proud of. Only two other Zebras went for a higher prices, and one other for £3000. The money raised from the auction goes to Marwell Zoo, the creators of the project, in to their charity to help support the work to protect the 'Grevy's' zebra and other wildlife in Africa. The sculptures are based on the Grevy Zebra with its distinctive ears. 
Thanks must go to the Sponsors, Casa Brazil and Associated British Ports for their sponsoring of the two Zebras I created. Thanks also to the new owners who bid, and lastly thanks to Marwell Zoo and the team involved in the hard work running the 'Zany Zebra' campaign in Southampton, which was enjoyed by the thousands!  
The total raised in the auction was £87,550. The campaigns pages for Zany Zebras are here, and the main page for Marwell Zoo, here.
A general page relating to my input in to the project can be seen here.
